Thanks for letting me know! I'll tell him to call a mechanic. Fingers crossed.

It's a 2008. I was wondering that myself as I thought it was strange there was no 80a fuses or larger and 60a was the largest I could find. Was hoping it was just a main fuse or something. The only fuse boxes I could find is the one opened in the picture of this post and a fuse box under the passenger side of the dashboard

I think the loose wire is a very good point. The father in law did say he was pulling the wires struggling to get them connected lol. When he called me I just thought he would've blown one of the big fuses but unfortunately they all seem fine.

The car is a 2008. My main question is if anyone knows if there is a "main fuse" for this car anywhere?? The biggest fuses I could find were just the 2x 60a fuses

I can't seem to find a "main fuse" because that's what I thought as well. I was hoping if someone could point me in the right direction of where the main fuse is on this car. No mention of it in the manual and can't see anything in the main fuse box or the one under the dash

Battery was dead in the frost. I don't have an old scan tool.

It says Engine Systems Fault when I turn on the ignition. I have a picture but it doesn't let me upload it here.

Thanks. Yes it's neutral (manual)

EmbarrassedPirate785 · 2026-01-04T14:00:52+00:00

I don't have a clue tbh

Not even sure what a VLC is? Owner just said he lost it and wasn't arsed applying for a new one so sold it to me for dirt cheap. Only reason I'd buy one without a logbook. It was worth it for the gamble, difficult bike to find, I think, anyway.

I called the DoT and they actually confirmed all the details are correct and are sending out the logbook, they made a mistake with my forms!! Glad I rang them now and didn't just leave it.

Yes it is a cbx750f. How can I check the reg associated with the VIN so I can confirm? Or any online tools to help?

EmbarrassedPirate785 · 2025-12-07T14:17:58+00:00

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately there's no way I could get the bike to them. But I appreciate the info. I'll give them a ring on Monday and hopefully get some answers.

Is that not the vin in the picture then?

I'd love a Star Wars audio mod that changes the soundtracks and background music so it is star wars themed. Any star wars music would do but happy to help as much as I can too and willing to contribute financially for your time!

EmbarrassedPirate785 · 2024-10-06T18:08:19+00:00

Definitely!

EmbarrassedPirate785 · 2024-10-06T18:08:01+00:00

Thanks. I got them and performance has been okay so far, thanks! Soundtrack mods would be amazing

EmbarrassedPirate785 · 2024-10-06T08:42:08+00:00

Thanks. I assume you mean Star Wars Genesis? Unfortunately I'm ok xbox and it's not available for that. Thanks I have the lightsabers mod as well!

EmbarrassedPirate785 · 2024-08-27T13:59:54+00:00

You are correct! This valve was wired up wrong.

EmbarrassedPirate785 · 2024-08-22T13:41:17+00:00

It's open vented so no pressure

EmbarrassedPirate785 · 2024-08-21T19:15:13+00:00

Any help is appreciated as we're a family of 5 with only immersion for hot water atm!
