My sled threw the ecu 05 code today. It’s a 2016 m8. Seemed to still run fine on the way home. Does anyone have any experience riding their sled with this code? I went through the connects with dielectric. Haven’t had a chance to put the volt meters to it. I also have a spastic gauge clutster, might be related?

Not a biggy...it just goes safest. Still runs well.

Also, most of these "fail" due to the cheesy/bad plug-in connectors. Direct solder/connect the connectors and see if it's fixed. If not, there is a thread about these and buying the same sensor for pennies on the dollar compared to the Arctic Cat price (which is absurd).

Good thread on this:

2 Failure in injector(s).
4 Open or short circuit in barometric pressure sensor circuit.
5 Open or short circuit in intake air temperature sensor circuit.
6 Open or short circuit in water temperature sensor circuit.
7 Open or short circuit in throttle position sensor circuit.
12 Failure in ignition coil(s).
16* Incorrect adjustment/failure in APV cable.
17* Failure in exhaust temperature sensor circuit.
18* Failure in servomotor.
21* Open or short circuit and/or loose knock sensor circuit.
OCTN* Low octane gasoline.




might look at the blue and black wires in the intake to make sure they are plugged in. not a 17 pipe temp code.

Yeah, it’s the air temp sensor. Went for a ride today, didn’t throw the code. Maybe just had some water on the sensor/plugs?
