Authentic factory ECU fault codes, sensor resistance specifications, and harness pinout troubleshooting.
Launch Full Indian Motorcycle DTC Engine→
Code P0107Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor
MAP sensor circuit low voltage or vacuum signal disconnected.
Test: Check 5.0V VRef and sensor output 2.5-3.0V DC at atmospheric key-on.
Code P0117Engine Coolant / Head Temp (ECT / EHT)
Engine temperature sensor circuit low voltage or thermistor shorted.
Test: Measure thermistor: ~2.5 kΩ at 20°C (68°F); 280-320 Ω at 80°C (176°F).
Code P0122Throttle Position Sensor 1 (TPS / APS)
Ride-by-wire electronic throttle body position track 1 low voltage.
Test: Check TPS 1 (0.5-4.5V) linear sweep; verify return spring mechanically snaps closed.
Code P0335Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP)
Zero timing sync pulses detected from 60-2 tooth reluctor wheel during starter cranking.
Test: Measure inductive pickup coil resistance: 560-680 Ω across 2-pin harness connector.
Code P0705Transmission Gear Position Sensor (GPS)
Gear position switch circuit invalid voltage or open circuit between neutral detents.
Test: Measure resistance in each gear: Neutral (~0 Ω), 1st through 6th distinct stepped resistance.
Code P1600ECM Internal / CAN Bus Communication Timeout
CAN communication lost between Bosch / Polaris ECM, VCM, and Ride Command TFT display.
Test: Measure 60 Ω CAN bus termination resistance between CAN-H (Yellow) and CAN-L (Green).
