Drifter02 Posted May 19, 2012 Share #1 Posted May 19, 2012 Have a 2006 Midnight, the control head for audio will sometimes not turn on, will randomly shut itself off or will sporadically change channels. Anyone else have this issue or have experience? Should the controller be replaced or is there maybe a "cheap" fix? It started about a month after warranty went out, and local Yamaha dealer said nothing they could do - for a long while I dealt with it, but it is getting more and more "ghostly" acting over the last month.

Brake Pad Posted May 19, 2012 Share #2 Posted May 19, 2012 just because... Mine did that just before my battery dead. But it could be part of the issue, or none at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drifter02 Posted May 19, 2012 Author Share #3 Posted May 19, 2012 new battery in February, given the onset and progression of malfunction, reasonably sure battery is not the issue, thanks though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanderer Posted May 19, 2012 Share #4 Posted May 19, 2012 Contacts/connectors behind the fairing. Put dielectric on all of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeWa Posted May 20, 2012 Share #7 Posted May 20, 2012 Contacts/connectors behind the fairing. Put dielectric on all of them. Dito on the contacts. Also the connectors are sometimes attached (wire tied) so the connections are stressed by their own weight. So pay attention to if the wire ties are above or below the connector.
