Engine Management System
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL) for the engine management
system illuminates when the ignition is
switched ON (to indicate that it is
working) but should not become
illuminated when the engine is running.
If the MIL becomes illuminated when the
engine is running, this indicates that a
fault has occurred in one or more of the
systems controlled by the engine
management
system.
In
such
circumstances, the engine management
system will switch to 'limp-home' mode
so that the journey may be completed, if
the fault is not so severe that the
engine will not run.
Warning
Reduce speed and do not continue to
ride for longer than is necessary with
the MIL illuminated. The fault may
adversely affect engine performance,
exhaust
emissions
and
fuel
consumption.
Reduced engine performance could
cause a dangerous riding condition,
leading to loss of control and an
accident.
Contact an authorized Triumph dealer
as soon as possible to have the fault
checked and rectified.
Note:
• If the MIL flashes when the ignition
is switched ON contact an
authorized Triumph dealer as soon
as possible to have the situation
rectified. In these circumstances
the engine will not start.
Low Oil Pressure Warning Light
With the engine running, if the
engine
oil
pressure
becomes
dangerously low, the low oil pressure
warning light will illuminate.
Caution
Stop the engine immediately if the low
oil pressure warning light illuminates.
Do not restart the engine until the
fault has been rectified.
Severe engine damage will result from
running the engine when the low oil
pressure warning light is illuminated.
Note:
• The low oil pressure warning light
will illuminate if the ignition is
switched ON without running the
engine.
Low Fuel Warning Light
The low fuel warning light will
illuminate when there is approximately
1 gallon (4 liters) of fuel remaining in the
tank.
