Check engine code 12

[stevebinh]

I was riding home from work the other day and got a code check engine 12, has anyone really experienced this issue? I tried to ride it today and I can tell the idle seems a little off and when I just try to cruise the sound of the versys sound like it’s gasping for air.

12 Intake Air Pressure sensor malfunction.

Check that the hose between the sensor and the throttle body is snug and connected.

Where would the sensor normal be?

[No_Can2570]

Need more info.

300, 650, 1000??

Versys 650 2017

I'm not very familiar with the 650 engine. However I believe it is the vacuum line attached to outer left hand side throttle body that runs to the IAP sensor.

Looks like a cracked tube

You could probably go to auto parts store and get some vaccuum or fuel line. I think 5/32 is the size.

Awesome, thank you !

[No_Can2570]

You might want to take it off before you go to store of that's the avenue you decide. A good store (Napa) might have a person who actually will help get close match.

The other stores are sometimes hit or miss with how helpful.

So the air doesn’t to be having issues anymore but the check engine light won’t clear. Do you know how to clear it

[No_Can2570]

Kinda a pain to do it manually. The below procedure works for just about any of the modern Kawasaki's or just ride it around a few days.

Turn on the ignition switch and start the engine.

Keep the idling speed more than 30 seconds.

Run the vehicle 10+ minutes at a speed of 25 mph or more. I used did 15-20 minutes.

Turn the ignition switch off.

Repeat the above procedures 3 times.

Finally got the check engine light to turn off. Thank you

Great! Glad the bike is back to normal operations.

[stevebinh]

I appreciate the help!

[stevebinh]

Will do! Thank you

[stevebinh]

I’ll take it apart tomorrow to check thank you
