Been having a few issues.
So first of all my bike broke down last Friday, its a Yamaha ybr 125 2009 plate.
Basically it was just cutting out when I eased of the revs, I got an error code on the engine management light which was 3 slow flashes and 3 fast flashes. That pointed towards an ignition error apparantley. So after a little bit of investigation I found a loose wire coming from the alternator it was blue if that helps. Also the gasket on the alternator was screwed, so I sorted that while I was there.
Once I sorted that I started getting another error which was 1 slow flash and 9 fast flashes. This one is apparently a common error with moisture in the ignition barrel so I got some switch cleaner for that today and gave it a good spray!
Now I think I have covered everything thats within my knowledge to check anymore advice on these errors?
Appreciate any replies

Re: Been having a few issues.
Has it stopped cutting out, and did you clear the errors codes
if not could be the coil, if you've got an multi-meter, could try a resistance test
With error codes, it doesn't show exactly whats wrong, just the general area

Re: Been having a few issues.
It hasn't cut out since finding the loose wire but sometimes struggles to start hence the ignition barrel getting attention.
Everything does seem fine on it now but was just wanting a second opinion and no I don't have a multimeter I'm afraid.
