Fault code 1133 is showing up. Indicates sensor problem on cylinders 2&3. Anyone here replaced a Hall Sensor on K1100? Didn't find much in search.

It's pretty straightforward. Be careful taking the HES cover off as the gasket tears easily. Line up the notch on the HES with the hole in the block when putting the "new" one in.

Where are you getting this fault code? K11's don't have ODB connectors that I know of...

Is that the GS-911 3-pin adapter? Nah, don't want to have to hookup the bike to a PC to read the codes. I think I can design myself an adapter that grounds any of the three pins. Smile

Precisely. No point buying a device that has a useless USB port and only works with PC's. And windows at that. Ugh.

Anyone here ever use parts from EME Euromotoelectrics? Pricing looks uncommonly low.

If they had something I needed, I wouldn't be afraid to buy from them. I have seen them recommended by others.

5-star rating on Facebook, Google and a few other places. They must be doing something right.

I have replaced a couple of these on K75's and it really is straight forward. Mark a line on both sides of the cut out with something like a nail or other sharp point before removing the old sensor. Fit the new sensor and connect the lead to the ignition amplifier. 3 cylinders or 4 it makes no difference, the procedure is the same.

As these items are made with some degree of precision, there is generally no need to check the timing but if you notice anything markedly different from when the original sensor was working properly you could try rotating the back plate by no more than half a degree at a time to see if this makes a difference. If there is no change reset it back to the marks you made before changing it over.

Installed a different HES finally with good results. Bike started right up, idled and reved up nicely. Didn't do a test ride yet, still buttoning up bodywork, will finish up tomorrow.

Again, thanks for suggestions and feedback.
