Thanks. What's the function of this TRE?
A TRE is just a resistor. There are two different types of TRE. Google some ads for TRE 008 and TRE 006 and you'l get the rundown on what they are supposed to do (for what that is worth). You may also discover where they would be located and what they look like. From what I've read, owners like them but they are probably not as good as achieving the same goal through other means.
The TRE 006 locks the gear position sensor in N so that the ECU thinks the bike is always in N. N has no restrictive mapping so the bike runs with more aggressive fueling (and supposedly timing as well). The TRE 008 makes the flies open according to 6th gear mapping which has the lowest flies open rpm of any gear.
Someone may be able to add/correct/elucidate on this. I've never owned a TRE. Just pull flies and/or flash and you have all the benefits both TREs claims to give.
I'd think if the switch or wiring was bad...there would be NO lamp happening.
Me too but since his bike is acting like it has a TRE 006, i thought it might possibly have a loose one or something is damaged causing a change in resistance in the wire a TRE is normally installed to. It's sort of a shot in the dark but easy enough to check to rule out or confirm.
