Modern Vespa

Hello everyone.

I have a problem with the Yourban 300LT MP3.

Starting the motorcycle or without starting it and with the ignition on. The orange train lock option light flashes normally until about 10 seconds later, when it turns off and the flashing fault light turns on.

It is as if you did a check and after a few seconds you detected some error. If I turn off the motorcycle and turn the ignition on again, the fault or light bulb continues flashing. If I leave it off for a few minutes (a few) when I turn on the ignition again the orange lights up until those 10 seconds have passed. It is as if it erases the error and does not notice it until it has been running for a while.

Important:

-The stabilizer works at all times with just one touch, both to lock and unlock. I don't need to double tap to unlock.

-No alarm sounds.

-The presence detector led works well while the orange light is on. If you sit down or get up, turn the light off and on. If I disconnect it, it does require you to double press to remove the lock.

-The speed sensors have both been changed and the wiring for each one is new.

Any ideas?

I have read something about the light box but that was on the model with ASR.

Any help is welcome.

All the best

Nothing?

Hi
I apologize that I didn't comment earlier, I'm not familier with the Yourban series of Mp3 so did not feel I could contribute. But perhaps I can help another way to clarify the issue and give some guidance.

I've read it through a few times and I'm not quite sure what issue needs solving. It might help to clarify the current status of the bike.

Does the bike run and is it safe to ride?
Does the tilt lock work despite the flashing red light or is that feature completely offline?
Does it ride but has features like tilt-lock or some major component not working?

The issue describes the light turning on/off and blinking but it doesn't really convey what specifically on the bike is not working or is not working as expected. With only the description of the light, folks may not know how to help.

You should also make sure you've gone through the basic check lists.
* Tilt-lock fluids and oils
* Remove plastic and check cables for anything loose around the tiltlock.
* Battery voltage
* Battery old / new
* Alternator working and charging batteries
* Fuses checked in both boxes and any suspect fuses swapped
* Over all condition of the bike: corrosion, rust, loose connections found
* Clarify the basic status of the system: Does the bike run? is it ridable?

Thank you very much for collaborating with my problem.

I will try to provide more information on this curious problem. It has me very intrigued.

Firstly I have to say that the bike works perfectly and so does the tilt lock.

When I start the bike everything works normally. I always leave it with the lock disconnected so that it doesn't get damaged when the bike is not used. After starting the orange light flashes but after a few seconds it goes off and the red light starts flashing.

It doesn't beep and the lock works.

The curious thing is that many times after driving for a few kilometers and before entering the parking lot, the flashing orange light is reset and comes back on.

That is, sometimes before turning it off the orange light works again.

The alternator charges correctly and the battery is in good condition.
Fluid levels were checked and fluid replaced. During these tasks I was able to hear for the first time the beep that the motorcycle emits in response to these failures.
The connectors are all checked.

Do you think it could be from the seat? It also works by turning off the light when I sit down and get up but perhaps the fault could be there.

Thank you

Can you post a picture of the red light when its lit up? Bonus points if you are able to capture it on video in which case just give a Youtube link.

Its possible that nothing is broken and your just observing some unusual behavior. This happens with my own 2016 Mp3 500 where after going over rough uneven roads the ASR/ABS lights will come on and stay on. This typically clears up after the bike is stopped for a bit; I think it happens because the tone-sensors get out of sync after bouncing over the bad roads.

Glad to hear the bike is otherwise fully functional and you are able to get use out of it. Silver linings on grey clouds mean your able to enjoy the bike

Sorry, no answer for rdesign... BUT, my problem relates to this thread. My 2009 MP3 250 has only 4.5k miles on it. The tilt-lock works fine, but I was getting the tilt-lock alert beep. I had the tilt-lock system bled & refilled... but still get the five beeps and lit lock alert when engaging the lock. Is there a reset for the alert? Or some other explanation or fix? MANY THANKS.

Hello again.

I bring a video of the failure and new information.

I have observed that when the fault is present, if I drive the motorcycle making strong use of the brake, compressing the front axle well, when I reduce the speed again and the orange light turns on, the error light goes off and the orange works normally again.

After this, the failure does not occur again until I have not used the motorcycle for two days or more.

My feeling is that when starting it does a check and detects little pressure. Then the orange light stops working and flashes red.

After a long journey with strong brake use and uneven terrain, the system gains pressure and when I stop again the orange light returns and remains that way without giving the error again.

What do you think it could be?

thank you so much.

I have a MP3 300 Yourban 2014. My battery went bad and ever since then the tilt lock won`t work. When I try to engage it there is a long beep and the red tilt not working light comes on. I think the bad battery has affected it as all was fine until then, any thoughts anyone ?
