Rules

This section describes general safety rules for any maintenance operations performed on the vehicle.

Safety rules

- If work can only be done on the vehicle with the engine running, make sure that the premises are well

ventilated, using special extractors if necessary; never let the engine run in an enclosed area. Exhaust

fumes are toxic.

- The battery electrolyte contains sulphuric acid. Protect your eyes, clothes and skin. Sulphuric acid is

highly corrosive; in the event of contact with your eyes or skin, rinse thoroughly with abundant water

and seek immediate medical attention.

- The battery produces hydrogen, a gas that can be highly explosive. Do not smoke and avoid sparks

or flames near the battery, especially when charging it.

- Fuel is highly flammable and it can be explosive given some conditions. Do not smoke in the working

area, and avoid naked flames or sparks.

- Clean the brake pads in a well-ventilated area, directing the jet of compressed air in such a way that

you do not breathe in the dust produced by the wear of the friction material. Even though the latter

contains no asbestos, inhaling dust is harmful.

Maintenance rules

- Use original PIAGGIO spare parts and lubricants recommended by the Manufacturer. Non-original or

non-conforming spares may damage the vehicle.

- Use only the appropriate tools designed for this vehicle.

- Always use new gaskets, sealing rings and split pins upon refitting.

- After removal, clean the components using non-flammable or low flash-point solvents. Lubricate all

the work surfaces, except tapered couplings, before refitting these parts.

- After refitting, make sure that all the components have been installed correctly and work properly.

- Use only equipment with metric sizes for removal, service and reassembly operations. Metric bolts,

nuts and screws are not interchangeable with coupling members using English measurements. Using

unsuitable coupling members and tools may damage the vehicle.

- When carrying out maintenance operations on the vehicle that involve the electrical system, make

sure the electrical connections have been made properly, particularly the ground and battery connec-

tions.

Engine oil

In four stroke engines, the engine oil is used to lubricate the timing elements, the bench bearings and

the thermal group. An insufficient quantity of oil can cause serious damage to the engine.

Fly 125 i.e - 150 i.e Leader (2011) Maintenance

MAIN - 35

Page 36: Piaggio Fly 125 i.e - 150 i.e Leader MY 2011 (EN)

In all four stroke engines, the deterioration of the oil characteristics, or a certain consumption should

be considered normal, especially if during the run-in period. Consumption levels in particular can be

influenced by the conditions of use (e.g.: oil consumption increases when driving at "full throttle".

Replacement

Change oil and replace filter as indicated in the

scheduled maintenance table. The engine must be

emptied by draining off the oil through the drainage

plug of the mesh pre-filter, flywheel side; further-

more to facilitate oil drainage, loosen or remove

the cap/dipstick. Once all the oil has drained

through the drainage hole, unscrew the oil car-

tridge filter and remove it. To carry out this opera-

tion, it is not necessary to remove the whole

silencer.

Make sure the pre-filter and drainage plug O-rings

are in good conditions.

Lubricate them and refit the mesh filter and the oil

drainage plug, screwing them up to the prescribed

torque.

Refit the new cartridge filter being careful to lubri-

cate the O-ring before fitting it.

Change the engine oil.

Since a certain quantity of oil still remains in the

circuit, oil must be filled from oil dipstick/cover.

Then start up the vehicle, leave it running for a few

minutes and switch it off: After about five minutes,

check the level and, if necessary, top-up but never

exceeding the MAX level reference mark. The car-

tridge filter must be replaced every time the oil is

changed. Use new oil of the recommended type

for topping up and changing purposes.N.B.THE ENGINE MUST BE HOT WHEN THE OIL IS CHANGED.

Check

This operation must be carried out with the engine cold and following the procedure below:

- Place the vehicle on its centre stand and on flat ground.

- Undo cap/dipstick, dry it off with a clean cloth and reinsert it, screwing down completely.

- Remove the cap/dipstick again and check that the level is between the MIN and MAX reference marks;

top up if necessary.

The MAX level mark indicates a quantity of around 1100 cc of oil in the engine. If the check is carried

out after the vehicle has been used, and therefore with a hot engine, the level will be lower; in order to

carry out a correct check it is necessary to wait at least 10 minutes after the engine has been stopped,

so as to get the correct level.

Engine oil top-up

The oil should be topped up after having checked

the level and in any case by adding oil without

ever exceeding the MAX. level.

Restoration of the level from MIN to MAX requires

approximately 200 cc.

Engine oil filter

The oil filter must be replaced every time the oil is changed.

Use new oil of the recommended type for topping up and changing purposes and comply with the

regulations regarding timing and mileage, as described in the periodic maintenance table.

Make sure the pre-filter and drainage plug O-rings are in good conditions.

Oil pressure warning light

The vehicle is equipped with a telltale light on the

dashboard that lights up when the key is turned to

the «ON» position. However, this light should

switch off once the engine has started.

If the light turns on during braking, at idling

speed or while turning a corner, it is necessary

to check the oil level and the lubrication sys-

tem.

Checking the ignition timing

-Remove the flywheel fan.

-Rotate the flywheel until the reference (arrow)

matches the crankcase operation end as shown in

the figure (TDC). Make sure that the 2V reference

point on the camshaft control pulley is aligned with

the reference point on the head as shown in the

second figure. If the reference mark is opposite the

indicator on the head, make the crankshaft turn

once more.

-The TDC reference mark is repeated also be-

tween the flywheel cooling fan and the flywheel

cover.

To use this reference mark, remove the spark plug

and turn the engine in the opposite direction to the

normal direction of rotation using a compass span-

Battery

BATTERYPossible Cause Operation

Battery The battery is the electrical device in the system that requiresthe most frequent inspections and thorough maintenance. If thevehicle is not used for some time (1 month or more) the battery

needs to be recharged periodically. The battery runs downcompletely in the course of 5 to 6 months. If the battery is fittedon a motorcycle, be careful not to invert the connections, keep-

ing in mind that the black ground wire is connected to thenegative terminal while the red wire is connected to the terminalmarked+. Follow the instructions in the ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

chapter for the recharging of the batteries.

Steering and suspensions

Heavy steering

STEERING HARDENINGPossible Cause Operation

Steering hardening Check the tightening of the top and bottom ring nuts. If irregu-larities continue in turning the steering even after making theabove adjustments, check the seats in which the ball bearingsrotate: if they are recessed or if the balls are squashed, replace

them.

Excessive steering play

EXCESSIVE STEERING CLEARANCEPossible Cause Operation

Excessive steering clearance Check the tightening of the top ring nut. If irregularities continuein turning the steering even after making the above adjust-ments, check the seats in which the ball bearings rotate: re-

place if they are recessed.

Noisy suspension

NOISY SUSPENSIONPossible Cause Operation

NOISY SUSPENSION If the front suspension is noisy, check: That the shock absorberworks properly inside the stanchions and that the steering ballbearings are in good condition. Finally, check the locking torqueof the wheel axle nut, the brake calliper and the disc. Check

that the swinging arm connecting the engine to the chassis andthe rear shock absorber work properly.

Suspension oil leakage

OIL LEAKAGE FROM SUSPENSIONPossible Cause Operation

Faulty or broken seals Replace the shock absorber Check the condition of wear of thesteering covers and the adjustments.

Checks and inspections

Immobiliser

The electronic ignition system is controlled by the

control unit with the integrated Immobilizer sys-

tem. The immobiliser is an antitheft system which

allows the vehicle to function only if it is activated

by means of the coded keys that the control unit

recognises. The code is integrated in a transpond-

er in the key block. This allows the driver clear

operation without having to do anything other than

just turning the key. The Immobilizer system con-

sists of the following components:

- Control unit

- Immobilizer aerial

- master and service keys with built-in transponder

- HV coil

- diagnosis LED

The diagnosis led also works as a blinking light to

deter theft. This function is activated every time the

ignition switch is turned to "OFF" and it remains

active 48 hours so as not to damage the battery

charging process.

When the ignition switch is turned to "ON", it inter-

rupts the function of the immobiliser lamp and a

start enable lamp comes "ON".

The duration of the flash depends on the program-

ming of the electronic control unit

ELE SYS - 65

Page 66: Piaggio Fly 125 i.e - 150 i.e Leader MY 2011 (EN)

If the LED is off regardless of the position of the

ignition switch and/or the instrument panel is not

initiated, check if:

• there is battery voltage

• fuse No. 2 and fuse No. 6 efficiency.

• there is power to the control unit as

specified below:

Remove the connector mounting bracket shown in

the photograph and disconnect the connector from

the control unit. Check the following conditions:

With the key switch set to OFF:

• there is battery voltage between terminals 9-7

and terminal 9-chassis ground (fixed power sup-

ply). If there is no voltage, check that fuse 6 and

its cable harness are in working order.

With the key switch in the ON position:

• there is battery voltage between terminals 6-7

and terminal 6-chassis ground (fixed power sup-

ply). If there is no voltage, check the ignition key

contacts, that fuse 2 and its cable are in working

order.

After removing the leg shield back plate, remove

the electrical connection from the aerial as shown

in the picture.

Remove the protective base from the connector.

With the ignition switch at ON check if there is bat-

tery voltage between the Orange-Blue and Black

cables

Virgin circuit

When the ignition system is not encrypted, any key

will start the engine but limited to 2000 rpm. The

keys can only be recognised if the control unit has

been programmed properly.

The data storage procedure for a previously un-

programmed control unit provides for the recogni-

tion of the red key (master key) as the first key to

be stored to memory: this becomes particularly

important because it is the only key that enables

the control unit to be wiped clean and reprogram-

med for the memorisation of the service keys.

The master and service keys must be used to code

the system as follows:

- Insert the Master key, turn it to «ON» and keep

this position for two seconds (lower and upper lim-

its 1 to 3 seconds).

- Insert the blue key and set to «ON» for 2 seconds.

- If you have copies of the key, repeat the operation

with each key.

- Insert the MASTER key again and turn it to «ON»

for 2 seconds.

The maximum time to change keys is 10 seconds.

A maximum of 7 service keys (blue) can be pro-

grammed at one time.

It is essential to adhere to the times and the pro-

cedure. If you do not, start again from the begin-

ning.

Once the system has been programmed, master

key transponder, decoder and control unit are

strictly matched.

With this link established, it is now possible to en-

code new service keys, in the event of losses,

replacements, etc.

Each new programming deletes the previous one

so, in order to add or eliminate keys, you must re-

peat the procedure using all the keys you intend to

keep using.

If a service key becomes uncoded, the efficiency

of the high voltage circuit shielding must be thor-

oughly inspected. In any case it is advisable to use

resistive spark plugs.

Diagnostic codes

The immobiliser system is tested each time the ig-

nition-key switch is turned from OFF to ON. During

this diagnosis phase a number of control unit sta-

tuses can be seen and various light codes dis-

played. Regardless of the code transmitted, if at

the end of the diagnosis the led remains off per-

manently, the ignition is enabled. If, however, the

led remains on permanently, it means the ignition

is inhibited:

1. Previously unused control unit - key inser-

ted: a single 2 second flash is displayed, after

which the LED remains off permanently. The keys

can be stored to memory, the vehicle can be star-

ted but with a limitation imposed on the number of

revs.

2. Previously unused control unit - transpond-

er absent or cannot be used: The LED is per-

manently ON; in this condition, no operations are

possible, not even starting the vehicle.

3. Programmed control unit - service key in-

serted (normal conditions of use): a single 0.7

second flash is displayed, after which the LED re-

mains off permanently. The engine can be started.

4. Programmed control unit - Master key inser-

ted: a 0.7-sec flash is displayed followed by the

LED remaining off for 2 sec and then by short 0.46-

sec flashes, the same number of times as there

are keys stored in the memory including the Mas-

ter key. When the diagnosis has been completed,

the LED remains permanently OFF. The engine

can be started.

5. Programmed control unit - fault detected: a light code is displayed according to the fault detected,

after which the LED remains on permanently. The engine cannot be started. The codes that can be

transmitted are:

• 1-flash code

• 2-flash code

ELE SYS - 69

Page 70: Piaggio Fly 125 i.e - 150 i.e Leader MY 2011 (EN)

• 3-flash code

Diagnostic code - 1 flash

A one-flash code indicates a system where the se-

rial line is not present or is not detected. Check the

Immobilizer aerial wiring and change it if necessa-

ry.

Diagnostic code - 2 flashes

A two-flash code shows a system where the con-

trol unit does not show the transponder signal. This

might depend on the inefficiency of the immobiliser

aerial or the transponder.

Turn the switch to ON using several keys: if the

code is repeated even with the Master key, check

the aerial wiring and change it if necessary. If this

is not the case, replace the defective key and/or

reprogram the control unit. Replace the control unit

if the problem continues.

Diagnostic code - 3 flashes

A three-flash code indicates a system where the

control unit does not recognise the key. Turn the

switch to ON using several keys: if the error code

is repeated even with the Master key, replace the

control unit. If this is not the case, reprogram the

decoder.

Battery recharge circuit

The charging circuit consists of three-phase alternator and a permanent magneto flywheel.

The generator is directly connected to the voltage regulator.

Electrical system Fly 125 i.e - 150 i.e Leader (2011)

ELE SYS - 70

Page 71: Piaggio Fly 125 i.e - 150 i.e Leader MY 2011 (EN)

This, in its turn, is connected directly to the ground and the battery positive terminal passing through

the 30A protective fuse. 07 (30A).

The three-phase alternator provides good recharge power and at low revs a good compromise is ach-

ieved between generated power and idle stability.

Stator check

Checking the stator windingsWARNING

THIS CHECK-UP CAN BE MADE WITH THE STATOR PROPERLY INSTALLED.

1) Remove the right side panel.

2) Disconnect the connector between stator and regulator with the three yellow cables as shown in the

picture.

3) Measure the resistance between each of the yellow terminals and the other two.

Electric characteristicResistance:

Sealed battery

If the vehicle is provided with a sealed battery, the only maintenance required is the check of its charge

and recharging, if necessary.

These operations should be carried out before delivering the vehicle, and on a six-month basis while

the vehicle is stored in open circuit.

Besides upon pre-delivery it is therefore necessary to check the battery charge and recharge it, if re-

quired, before storing the vehicle and afterwards every six months.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE BATTERY REFRESH AFTER OPEN-CIRCUIT STORAGE

1) Voltage check

Before installing the battery on the vehicle, check the open circuit voltage with a standard tester.

- If voltage exceeds 12.60 V, the battery can be installed without any renewal recharge.

- If voltage is below 12.60 V, a renewal recharge is required as explained in 2).

2) Constant voltage battery charge mode

- Constant voltage charge equal to 14.40 to 14.70V

- Initial charge voltage equal to 0.3 to 0.5 for Nominal capacity

1) Battery preparation

Position the battery on a flat surface. Remove the

adhesive sheet closing cells and proceed as quick-

ly as possible to run the subsequent activation

phases.

2) Electrolyte preparation.

Remove the container of the electrolyte from the

pack. Remove and preserve cover strips from the

container, in fact, the strip will later be used as a

closing cover.

Note: Do not pierce the sealing of the container or

the container itself because inside there is sulphu-

ric acid.

ELE SYS - 81

Page 82: Piaggio Fly 125 i.e - 150 i.e Leader MY 2011 (EN)

3) Procedure for filling the battery with acid.

Position the electrolyte container upside down with

the six areas sealed in line with the six battery filler

holes. Push the container down with enough force

to break the seals. The electrolyte should start to

flow inside the battery.

Note: Do not tilt the container to prevent the flow

of electrolyte from pausing or stopping.

4) Control the flow of electrolyte

Make sure air bubbles are rising from all six filling holes. Leave the container in this position for 20

minutes or more.

Note:If there are no air bubbles coming out of the filling holes, lightly tap the bottom of the container

two or three times. Do not remove the container from the battery.

5) Take out the container.

Make sure all the electrolyte in the battery is drained. Gently tap the bottom of the container if electrolyte

remains in the container. Now, gently pull the container out from the battery, only do this when the

container is completely empty, and proceed immediately to the next point.

6) Battery closing.

Insert the airtight cover strips into the filling holes. Press horizontally with both hands and make sure

that the strip is levelled with the top part of the battery.

Note:To do this, do not use sharp objects that could damage the closing strip, use gloves to protect

your hands and do not bring your face close to the battery.

The filling process is now complete.

Do not remove the strip of caps under any circumstances, do not add water or electrolyte.

Place the battery down for 1 to 2 hours prior to the charging from the battery.

7) Recharging the new battery

With the above-mentioned procedure, the battery

will have gained around 70% - 75% of its total

electrical capacity. Before installing the battery on

the vehicle, it must be fully charged and then must

be recharged.

If the battery is to be installed on the vehicle

prior to this pre-charged one, the battery will

not be able to exceed 75% charge without jeop-

ardising its useful life on vehicle.

The dry charge battery MF like the completely loa-

ded YTX, must have a no-load voltage between

- The cylinder rectifying operation should be car-

ried out with a surfacing that respects the original

angle.

- The cylinder surface roughness should be 0.9

micron.

- This is indispensable for a good seating of the

sealing rings, which in turn minimises oil consump-

tion and guarantees optimum performance.

- The pistons are oversized due to cylinder rectifi-

cation and are subdivided into three categories

1st, 2nd, 3rd with 0.2-0.4-0.6 mm oversize. They

are also classified into 4 categories A-A, B-B, C-

halves, thoroughly clean all surfaces and oil ducts.

- On the transmission side crankcase half, take

particular care cleaning the housing and oil ducts

for the following components: the oil pump, the oil

by-pass valve, the main bushings and the cooling

jet on the transmission side (see diagram).

- Take particular care, also, that there are no signs

wear in the oil by-pass valve housing (see Chapter

Lubrication), as this could prevent a good seal in

the piston, which regulates the oil pressure.N.B.THE JET IS FED THROUGH THE MAIN BUSHINGS. PROP-ER OPERATION OF THIS COMPONENT IMPROVES PIS-TON CROWN COOLING.

ings, the oil duct for the jet that lubricates the

cylinder head and the oil drainage duct at the fly-

wheel side oil seal.N.B.THE HEAD LUBRICATION CHANNEL IS PROVIDED WITHA SHUTTER JET; THIS GIVES A "LOW PRESSURE" HEADLUBRICATION; THIS CHOICE WAS MADE TO REDUCETHE OIL TEMPERATURE IN THE SUMP.

- Check the main bearing seats that limit axial

clearance in the crankshaft show no signs of wear.

The dimension between these seats is measured

by way of the procedure described previously for

measuring the crankshaft axial clearance and di-

mensions.

Inspecting the crankshaft plain bearings

- To obtain a good bushing lubrication it is neces-

sary to have both an optimal lubricating pressure

(4 bar) and a good oil flow rate; the bushings must

be correctly positioned so as not to obstruct the oil

supply channels.

- The main bushings are comprised of two half-

bearings, one with holes and channels for lubrica-

tion whereas the other is solid.

- The solid half-bearing is intended to stand the

thrusts caused by combustion, and for this reason

it is arranged opposite the cylinder.

- To prevent shutters in the oil feeding channels,

the matching surface of the two half-bearings must

be perfectly orthogonal to the cylinder axis, as

shown in the figure.

- The oil feeding channel section is also affected

by the bushings driving depth compared with the

crankshaft axial clearance of the limiting surface.N.B.TO KEEP THIS POSITION OF THE BUSHINGS ON THECRANKCASE, FITTING IS FORCED ON STEEL RINGS IN-SERTED IN THE CASTING OF BOTH CRANKCASEHALVES.

MIU injection system

This vehicle is fitted with an integrated injection and ignition system.

Injection is indirect in the manifold through an electro-injector.

The injection and ignition are timed on the four-stroke cycle by means of a tone wheel keyed on to the

crankshaft (24-2 teeth) and pick-up sensor.

Combustion and ignition are managed on the basis of engine revs and throttle valve opening. Further

corrections are made according to the following parameters:

- Engine temperature

- Intake air temperature

- Lambda probe

The system implements cold engine idle fuel/air mixture correction with a stepper motor on a by-pass

circuit of the throttle valve. The control unit manages the Stepper motor and the injector opening time,

thereby ensuring the idle steadiness and the proper combustion.

In all conditions of use, mixture preparation is managed by modifying the injector opening time.

The fuel pressure is kept constant in relation to ambient pressure.

The fuel system circuit consists of:

- Fuel pump

- Fuel filter

- Injector

- Pressure regulator

The pump, the filter and the regulator are placed inside the fuel tank on a single support.

The injector is connected by a pipe with fast-release fittings. The pressure regulator is located at the

beginning of the circuit.

The fuel pump is controlled by the MIU control unit; this ensures safety of the vehicle.

The ignition circuit consists of:

- HV coil

- HV cable

- Shielded cap

- MIU control unit

- Spark plug

The MIU control unit manages ignition with the best advance ensuring four-stroke timing (ignition only

in the compression phase) at the same time.

The MIU injection-ignition system controls engine functions by means of a pre-set program.

Should any input signals fail, an acceptable working order of the engine is ensured to allow the user to

reach a service station.

Page 157: Piaggio Fly 125 i.e - 150 i.e Leader MY 2011 (EN)

Of course, this cannot happen when the rpm-timing signal is missing, or when the failure involves the

control circuits:

- Fuel pump

- HV coil

- Injector

The control unit is provided with a self-diagnosis

system connected to an indicator light in the in-

strument panel.

Failures are detected and restored by the diag-

nostic tester.

In any case, when the fault is no longer present,

the data storage is automatically cleared after 16

cycles of use (cold start, running at regular engine

temperature, stop).

The diagnostic tester is also required to adjust the

idle mixture.

Specific tooling020922Y Diagnosis ToolThe MIU control unit has a decoder for the anti-

theft immobilizer system.

The MIU control unit is connected to a diagnostic

LED on the instrument panel, that also carries out

the deterrent flashing functions.

PrecautionsTroubleshooting tips

1 A MIU failure is more likely to be due to the connections than to the components.

Before troubleshooting the MIU system, carry out the following checks:

A: Electrical power supply

Fly 125 i.e - 150 i.e Leader (2011) Injection

INJEC - 157

Page 158: Piaggio Fly 125 i.e - 150 i.e Leader MY 2011 (EN)

a. Battery voltage

b.Burnt fuse

c.Remote control switches

d.Connectors

B: Chassis ground

C: Fuel system

a. Faulty fuel pump

b.Dirty fuel filter

D: Ignition system

a. Faulty spark plug

b.Faulty coil

c.Faulty screened cap

E: Intake circuit

a. Air filter dirty

b.Dirty by-pass circuit

c.Faulty stepper motor

F: Other

a. Wrong distribution timing

b.Incorrect idle speed carburetion

c.Incorrect reset of the throttle valve position sensor

2 MIU system faults may be caused by loose connectors. Make sure that all connections have been

correctly made.

Check the connectors taking into consideration the following point:

A check that the terminals are not bent.

B check that the connectors have been properly connected.

C - Check whether the malfunction can be fixed by shaking the connector slightly.

3 Check the entire system before replacing the MIUIf the fault is fixed by replacing the MIU, install the

original control unit again and check if the fault occurs again.

4 Use a multimeter with an internal resistance of more than 10K Ohm /V when troubleshooting. Instru-

ments that are not suitable might damage the MIU central control unit. Use instruments with definitions

over 0.1V and 0.5 W , the precision must be greater than 2%.

1. Before fixing any part of the injection system, check to see if there are any registered faults. Do not

disconnect the battery before checking for faults.

2. The fuel system is pressurised at 250 kPa (2.5 BAR). Before disconnecting the fast-release fitting of

the fuel supply pipe, check that there are no naked flames. Do not smoke. Act with caution to avoid

spraying fuel to your eyes.

3. When fixing electric components, operate with the battery connected only when actually required.

INJEC - 158

Page 159: Piaggio Fly 125 i.e - 150 i.e Leader MY 2011 (EN)

4. When functional checks are performed, check that the battery voltage is over 12V.

5. Before any attempt to start the vehicle, check to make sure there is at least two litres of fuel in the

tank. Failure to respect this norm will damage the fuel pump.

6. If the vehicle is expected to remain unused for a long time, refill the tank up to a little over half the

level. This will ensure the pump will be covered by fuel.

7. When washing the vehicle, be careful with the electric components and cable harnesses.

8. When an ignition problem is detected, start the checks from the battery and the injection system

connections.

9. Before disconnecting the MIU ECU connector, perform the following steps in the order shown:

- Set the switch to «OFF»

- Disconnect the battery

Failure to respect this norm may damage the control unit.

10. Do not invert the poles when fitting the battery.

11. To avoid causing any damage, disconnect and reconnect the MIU system connectors only if re-

quired. Before reconnecting, check that the connectors are dry.

12. When carrying out electric inspections, do not force the tester probes into the connectors. Do not

take measurements not specifically foreseen by the manual.

13. At the end of every check performed with the diagnostic tester, remember to protect the system

connector with its cap. Failure to observe this precaution may damage the MIU control unit.

14. Before reconnecting the quick couplers of the power supply system, check that the terminals are

perfectly clean.

Zeroing the throttleResetting the throttle valve position signal (TPS reset)

The MIU control unit is supplied with a throttle valve position sensor that is pre-calibrated.

Pre-calibration entails regulating the minimum opening of the throttle valve to obtain a certain flow of

air under pre-set reference conditions.

Fly 125 i.e - 150 i.e Leader (2011) Injection

INJEC - 179

Page 180: Piaggio Fly 125 i.e - 150 i.e Leader MY 2011 (EN)

Pre-calibration ensures optimal air flow to control idling.

This regulation must not be tampered with in any way whatsoever.

The injection system will complete the management of the idling through the Stepper motor and the

variation of the ignition advance.

The throttle body after the pre-calibration has an opened valve with an angle that can vary depending

on the tolerances of the machining of the pipe and the valve itself.

The valve position sensor can also assume various fitting positions. For these reasons the mV of the

sensor with the valve at idle can vary from one throttle body to another.

To obtain the optimum fuel mixture, especially at small openings of the throttle valve, it is essential to

match the throttle body with the control unit following the procedure known as TPS resetting.

With this operation we inform the control unit, as the starting point, of the mV value corresponding to

the pre-calibrated position.

To reset, proceed as follows.

Connect the diagnostic tester.

Switch to «ON».

Select the functions of the diagnostic tester on «TPS RESET».

Specific tooling020922Y Diagnosis Tool

Make sure that the throttle valve with the control is supporting the stop screw.

Reset should be performed in the following cases:

- on first fitting.

- if the injection control unit is replaced.N.B.THE TPS RESET PROCEDURE MUST NOT BE CARRIEDOUT WITH A USED THROTTLE BODY BECAUSE POSSI-BLE VALVE WEAR AND STOP WEAR FOR THE MINIMUMOPENING MAKE THE AIR FLOW DIFFERENTLY FROMTHAT OF PRE-CALIBRATION.

Guaranteeing that this position will be kept, send a confirmation for the TPS reset procedure.
