I haven't had any trouble codes until tonight when it shows 46 on the display which I believe is that it cant measure the voltage to the injection system.

The bike started misfiring on friday night in the rain, I fiddled with the HT lead and afterwards it ran fine all the way home. I left it in the garage till monday and it refused to start and hasnt run since.

Any help would be much appreciated.
Wait until dark, no lights on in the garage, try starting while watching around all the suspect areas, you MAY see some arcing.

Good fortune
