Hi All,

I've read some of the articles and it seems like a common issue with the MP3 that the horn will honk or a beep goes off.

in my case there is a long beep and it looks like the motor is in limp mode.

What did I try?

1. cleaned the sensors on both front wheels
2. topped up the hydrolic fluid
3. bought a new ECU behind the two front wheels
4. Cleaned all connectors I could locate on the front
5. replaced all fuses (budy seat + right front side)

The beeping keeps going off and I'm not sure what else I can do maybe a messed up by just replacing the ECU

All tips are welcome

Is a sensor/switch in the front that inform the ecu about the system limit. Is a black one, search for the part 642555

If is damage it generate a problem with the tilt lock inclusive some times don't allow to start the mp3

I know is a stupidly expensive part but I try to find for a friend a less expensive option and can't find. Try the bike breakers yard option if possible, or to be 100% sure that the problem is that part use it from a friend MP3 first.
