3 Lights with starter?

[Guest DREBBIN]

Really guys, I'm not a whiner, just trying to edumacate myself here ---

 

I came home today to test the RSV start up and battery:

 

1. Turned ignition to ON (used Squeeze suggestion too!)

 

2. Amber ck engine light came on for 2 seconds and went off

 

3. Hit the starter -- red coolant and oil lights came on and went off as soon as starter was released.

 

According to the manual, the Amber ck engine light shld come on AS THE STARTER IS PUSHED -- not when the ignition is turned to on.

 

The bike is turning over right away and idling nicely.

 

Soooo......? What's up with the amber light coming on with the ignition and not with the starter?

 

Thnx for your patience and help, DREBBIN

sound normal to me. Mine does the same. One thing we have noticed here is there are inconsistancies in the owners and tech manual. Bike is right and paper is wrong. PS when you do the carb sync in the future do not use the shop manual. Look in the tech section here.
