Honda: reminder for the X-ADV who can lose power ...In Moto / PracticeAndré Lecondé December 20th 2018 at 15h48 0 The information comes to us from HERE. The Honda X-ADV that reinvents the idea of the scooter while opening the horizons of the bike is on the reminder. The dealerships will have to look closely at the electronics of the 2017 and 2018 models. One of the components could play tricks on the owner who would end up with a sluggish machine ... Honda calls its X-ADV products between January 26, 2017 and October 4, 2018. Why? Because of the PPTC module (positive temperature coefficient polymer), which is a resettable internal fuse located in the shield of the motorcycle.When the machine is running at low speed, the PPTC may overheat and cause the engine to malfunction by turning off power. When this occurs, it is impossible to change gears and the power at the rear wheel can be completely lost, resulting in the stopping of the machine.The full recall notes indicate: "When the motorcycle is constantly driven at low speeds, the heat generated affects the PPTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient Polymer) device of the computer and the motorcycle may enter the fail-safe mode. This makes it impossible to change gear and the driving force can be lost. It will not be possible to continue driving.
