Lambda Sensor Power Commander

[chrismx175]

I have a 2000 1150GS that has been fitted with a power commander the bike has been running a bit rich and on further investigation the lambda sensor is disconnected. Is it a requirement with power commander for lambda sensor to be disconnected is is it likely lambda sensor knackered and been disconnected to aid smoother running? Any thoughts appreciated and thanks in advance

Yes, it's usual practice to disconnect the lambda sensor when fitting a Power Commander. If the sensor remains in use, it attempts to restore the fuelling back to standard when the system is running in closed-loop mode, ie at relatively low revs and small throttle openings.

Has it been mapped on the dyno or has someone been guessing the fuelling and pressing the buttons on the Power Commander? Have a look on the Dynojet site for a Power Commander map that matches your bike's configuration and install that. Failing that, get yourself along to your nearest Dynojet agent and get a custom map made up on the dyno.

Yes it was mapped on Dyno when installed but this was before I owned it so will find somewhere to get it checked out thanks
