This is my original post but no fix as yet. When I say hot I do not mean the engine I mean the outside temps. This may just be a coincidence but this is when it starts. If I ride early in the morning it is OK then later that afternoon I get on it and it starts missing and cutting off. My dash is scratched to the point i can not read the lights very well but the row of lights do light up when I turn the key on. However there is a light under the OD light as it is raised above the row of lights that comes on when it starts missing and I cannot see what it is.

Re: engine shuts off at idle when hot
mileage, and year ???
If it's a GL1800 from 2001-05, a new meter lens is cheap. The next question will probably be if the FI light comes on.

Re: engine shuts off at idle when hot
Thanks for the reply. The FI light finally came on and I did get the code. My local guy who has been doing my maintenance finally got back to me and I am headed over there today. He said it may be the computer as they are having problems with the 01 computers.
Thanks to all.

What code did it throw? 25 or 26 is probably a bad ECM.wtaylor20 wrote: ↑Thu Aug 01, 2019 1:31 pm Thanks for the reply. The FI light finally came on and I did get the code.
