9-5 sudden stop without warning (shutting off)

by dude C 2016. 1. 29.

solution case #1 :

It turns out that the cause was the red clip that holds enginde cable connector and DI cassette.

There is a red clip that holds DI and engine connector. Check it whether it is in correct direction.

Somehow mine came off then plugged to wrong direction and this caused all the problems. If you pull hard the red clip

it can came off from the tip of the cable connector and if you put it back in wrong direction then still it looks okay

but in this case the red clip cannot hold tightly the connector and DI together and cut power to the DI.

I tried everything and replaced all possible parts but all failed so last try was replacing entire engine cable.

I disconnect DI and tried to put (used) new cable then found that the red clip was in wrong direction.

I switched the red clip's direction then all the problem disappeared. If you tried all things but failed so far then check

the red clip and give it a shot. It will not cost you anything so worth to try. Believe it or not my problem for 6 months

was fixed by this simple thing.

 

 

solution case #2 :

Check positive battery cable junction terminal

=> quiet failure (no surging, no sputtering) : normally electronic issue.
