mjsracing Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Easier if the tank is not full! 1) Remove seats and adjuster plastic thing. 2) Remove the top tank shroud. This is the left side. This is the back. 3) Remove the turn signal plates. 4) Remove right and left tank shrouds 5) Remove rear tank trim 6) Remove front and rear tank mount bolts. Note that the rear of the tank will drop a bit when the rear bolts are removed. 7) Gently tilt the back of the tank up and disconnect the vent and overflow hoses. Keep track of which is which. Disconnect the fuel pump power connector. Disconnect the fuel pump power connector. Leave the fuel line connected. 9) Gently lift and slide the tank back to expose the ECU at the front. 10) Unplug the ECU connectors and slide the ECU out. The connector release tabs are on the bottom side of the connectors. That's it!

mattemike Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 IMHO, couldn't be any clearer as to how to remove the ECU. You should work for Yamaha. Thanks!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firemanjim Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Did mine today to install a PC-5, quite the ordeal. Yamaha makes some fasteners in odd places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member ULEWZ Posted September 4, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted September 4, 2015 Used your ECU removal instructions to flash my ECU and they are very good, Thank you. I bought a flashtune kit and proceded to flash away. I will do a ride review tomorrow and see how things came out. I just did some basic things and loaded an M4 fuel map for an FZ-09. Here is a picture of the flashtune software and what I accessed (nothing changed above ECU SETTINGS): A government which robs Peter to pay Paul can always depend on the support of Paul.

Not sure exactly when after removing the tank fasteners, but you can just twist the tank 180 degrees and not have to disconnect all the power and hoses. Worked on the FZ and on the FJ. Just rotate it and set on seat. Ken, Candy Ass L.D.R.

Buggy Nate Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 I'm with ulewz, where'd you pick up the flash software and cables from mate? Pm me if you need to, I'm a tinkerer by trade! All respect to 2 wheel d/w but I'm too far away to send my ecu anywhere and it'd be cool to have a looksie inside, do they supply generic maps like power commanders?

skipperT Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Did you disconnect the battery first? You don't need to necessarily on bikes without an alarm. I can't speak for other than us models. On US models, as long as the key switch is off, just unplug it. -Skip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

panooch Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 After taking a nice spirited ride to lower the fuel level, I jumped in confidently, after viewing your post and pulled the ECU. Thank you for this thread mjsracing. It took me a total of 30 minutes after reading your post. Without this, would have taken me quite a bit longer with all the fasteners. linky Everyday's a good day when your able to ride 15 FJ-09 - 2WDW ECU flash, Givi SV201, Nelson Rigg tail bag, OES sliders, Koubalink extenders, Ermax Sport, Vista Cruise, OEM seat mod, (smiles) 07 Honda ST1300A (sold) 06 Kawi KLR650 - Big Gun full exhaust, Corbin, Givi, PMR racks, carb mod (keeper) 97 Honda VFR750 - Traxxion Dynamics, Penske, Givi 3 piece, carbon exhaust (keeper?) 20+ years of snowmobiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xlxr Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 I could not get the ECU plugs to release, so I took the tank all the way off just to get it out of the way. The fuel line has a orange connector lock that you slide over to the big hole and slide the orange connector lock off, then then there are two buttons on another connector that you squeeze to disconnect the line. You can see the orange connector lock a few pictures above. Be careful to not scratch the tank on the bottom of the handle bar, which I didn't do. But the bottom of the tank did scratch the frame up by the motor, I just was not keeping close enough watch on that and got a few small scratches on the frame.

cretin Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Great instructions and photos. Thanks! You saved me a few headaches and some head scratching. FYI you can still access the ECU without disconnecting the hoses and fuel pump by just putting a stick on top of the airbox. I used a PVC pipe and it worked no problem. Also, for those who are having difficulty removing the ECU connectors, just use some needlenose pliers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
likebutta Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I managed to get the ECU out by myself with a full tank. It wasn't easy but I found that wedging a flathead screwdriver underneath the clips and they popped out. The retaining clips that hold the ECU in were the more difficult ones but again, a flathead screwdriver and some dexterity with my right hand helped slip it out.
