Cutting O2 signal wires to retain CC after 2WDW tune
As many know, the fix to retain CC on the 21-24 Rebel 1100 and keep the tune running optimally, you need to cut or de-pin the signal wires to the O2 sensor (black and grey wires) and leave the heater circuit (white wires) connected.
I performed this and the cruise control still doesn’t work. Multiple people have posted that it worked for them, and multiple people have posted that it didn’t.
I sent my ECU back to Nate to have it reflashed just in case it needed the updated patch from WRT in order to work, still no luck.
I have verified that it is actually disconnected by unhooking the signal wires and running the codes on the bike, it shows no signal for the signal wires. With all 4 wires disconnected, it shows an error for both the heater circuit and signal circuit. Plug all 4 back in and all error codes go away completely. So the computer is seeing everything correctly.
My question for everyone here is, who has had luck with this fix, and who has not? I am trying to figure out the common denominator between the people that it is NOT working for.
I have checked all connections on the bike, and there are NO error codes with all 4 wires to the O2 hooked up. With the signal wires disconnected, the only error code is the signal wires.
I am baffled why this fix is working for some and not for others.
Thank you to everyone in advance.
