Hey With so many sensors, the diagnostic tool at service centers may be a good option to check and diagnose problems. But some are accessible and easy to diagnose at home like the TPS. ECU will all the sensors may seems intimidating but it is simple thing. Sensor (like TPS, MAP, O2, Crank speed, to name a few) provide input or information to the ECU which on predefined set of parameters from these inputs, guides the fuel injector and ignition timing, to feed fuel into the engine and advance or retard timing respectively All these sensors work in conjunction to each other but if one fails the engine will still run on input from the sensor but ECU wont be able to fine tune thus there would be roughness and other teltale symptoms. This one is regarding TPS. If not adjusted properly it can lead to pough/erratic idle and poor performance. Checking and adjusting is the sipmlest. Hope fully the video will come handy Cheers :)
You saved my himalayan to be sold. I followed your videos to adjust the tps, the idle screw and upgraded the spark plug with the iridium one and now it is just perfect! The tps was adjusted from .60 to .57 and i could not believe the difference it did after it was adjusted. It is a completely different motorcycle now. Thank you so much!!
Thanks for this. I bought a cheap multimeter and used a sewing needle taped to the probe. It showed .64 and I adjusted it to 5.6/5.7 (bouncing between the two). Started the bike up and it stayed running! Had to lower the idle and will continue to work on that next time I ride. I typically don’t work on my bikes, but I know the dealer wasn’t going to try this. Can’t believe it actually worked for me. Your sewing needle idea was great and saved a lot of money, instead of buying a probe kit. The engine feels so much more stable. Thanks again.
Thanks mate, I am glad you found this useful. We are lucky that our model has all these adjustability. Newer models have different throttle body with no idle adjustment or TPS sensor adjustment😉
Seriously, THANK YOU. I've had poor idle before warmup (often stalling) since I bought my himalayan and just the tiniest adjustment completely solved the problem. It's so, so much more pleasant and less temperamental now. Huge thanks.
Thanks mate, I am really glad that bike; is running good after adjustment, we have got to love the simplicity of this beautiful machine. Thanks and cheers :)
You have no idea how helpful you have been. I've been going bonkers trying to figure out what the problem was. I went to the extent of cleaning my fuel pump and tank and using me fuel. Thank you!!!!
@@leuheanrede nah mate. I'm having to replace the entire throttle assembly. The throttle body is apparently malfunctioning. Hope the warranty covers it.
Word to the wise. You ignition switch needs to be on :). I’m very new to motorcycles and tried this for about a half hour before figuring it out. Seems to be running much nice now!
Adjusted mine bs3 carb. to 0.51 Volts at ideal! It was 0.25 volts from the factory i guess! My engine use to ping at times when the bike was heated! Now the bike feels super smooth and nimble and the pinging is negligible ! I hope 0.50 is correct as i read in ya comment! Thnks a ton! The joy i din had for 5 years is what i have it now! ❤
Greetings from Brazil! My Himalayan has been stalling since April, just solved it with your help. Couldn't believe when i got under the bike, checked the plug and noticed it was not connected. Just tested it on a ride, feels perfect! Thank you so much!
Greetings mate :) indeed that plug is a bit of a hassle, have known a few cases where it has come loose. I am glad its all ok now, thanks and Cheers :)
Great job my friend, i referred to this video and Yesterday I did complete servicing including valve adjustment and TPS positioning, now bike is smooth like butter. Thanks a lot my friend :)
Thank you so much for this video. I did as you suggested and I've fixed my problem. I might have gone off slightly from the 5 6 that I set it at but my idle is now good and the bike no longer stalls at a stop. I was happy to be able to resolve this. Your videos are very helpful.
Thanks mate, really glad to know that you were able to resolve the issue. It's a simple fix and goes a long way in keeping the bike ride and sound healthy. Cheers :)
Nice work demystifying this job and great job demonstrating how to back-probe electrical connections to measure voltage--your tutorials are invaluable to me. Thank you so much, from Seattle.
I have rebuild my engine of a RE Continental GT 535... However in the process of removing the engine from the frame I disconnected the TPS sensor and after reinstalling the Engine the engine light is on. After some diagnostic trickery I know the cause is the TPS sensor (6 short light blinking after hardwiring the diagnostic line to the ground). Thanks for this super clear "how to" on how to set it up properly! I now know how to fix it :)
Being following you for quite a time now, the term you use to explain get me to a point that you belong to a mechanical engineering background. The butterfly we have to see such a amazing machine with so many moving parts surely amazed me. I have also tried opening the Himalayan apart and did some DIY of my own. Felt your work is also clean and clear to help out biking community 😁
Thanks for such kind words mate, I really appreciate it. :) Idea for these DIY's originated from the love of all things mechanical and truly enjoying those parts mash up together and start singing in harmony like a perfect note as you mentioned. I am truly glad to be of assistance and to learn that you have started DIYs. Kudos to you mate, and i will try to make sure to keep loading simple and true to best DIY vids, (among other nonsense which you can ignore :), because there will be some nonsense getting uploaded for sure ;) ) Cheers :)
You have a great video playlist for the Himalayan, I've referred to the troubleshooting and maintenance videos many many times. Keep up the outstanding vids.
Another great informative video, thanks. Mine is starting to get a bit temperamental idling since installing a ejk fuel controller. I've done this adjustment to my classic 500 so I know it works, it made a great difference. I'll be doing this tomorrow to my Himalayan tomorrow.
Thanks so much for such a detailed video instruction, step by step. I have a 2022 RE Himalayan and it has been stalling at startup every time. I will test the TPS voltage / position and adjust as needed. Thanks again!
Hey mate, thanks for your kind words. Now unfortunately, I have not worked on 2022 himalayan, I have looked at the throttle body of new models and found them to be different in design and function. So not sure if TPS adjustability is available. Please do let me know if it is. Cheers
Hahaha and I thank you Sir for tolerating my nincompoopish vids :D, I can only hope you found this vid handy to resolve any issues if they existed, cheers :)
@@leuheanrede again, you are the who deserves the thanks. Please don't thank me for just acknowledging that. And don't sell yourself short, the videos are PERFECT the way they are. Please please don't beautify it with 'production quality', it's definitely not needed. Just practical facts! -from an old Y350 rider from the '90s. Past my prime but still got 2-stroke thunder in my heart!
same tps values for Bs3? great video. this will probably fix an issue that 4 certified RE mechanics havent been able to figure out. thanks for sharing.
Dear friend, I had been and still an enthusiast about the vehicles and bikes. 1982 had a Enfield Bullet 350. It was meticulously maintained. Now the scene is enormously changed. New technology and digital fly by wires system had made things better. Here about this video and the demonstration with explanation by you: All correct and to the point they are. My few dull & dumb questions....are: 1) Let me assume the TPS position is at perfect position say +/-- zero. Now by stepping down to minus one, the engine RPM will lower and viceversa? Is this correct? (One may not do this for setting the idle rpm.) 2) Regarding setting the idle RPM: As demonstrated in your other upload: The idle adjustment brass screw when turned in either of the direction: Does it physically lifts the throttle. OR Does it regulates the Air flow resulting in making the fuel-mix, lean or rich. Please. Hope to go through all of your uploads and will be asking a lot, in future. Regards. All the best. RR
Informative video brother.. my Bs6 2023 himalayan started to cut off when i down shift to lower gears like 2nd or 1st. Immediately after downshift and the clutch is still disengaged the engine cuts off abruptly. This is very annoying in traffic situations and while doing some offroading. Is this a TPS issue or something else?
I have an issue while riding in lower gears and around 3 to 4 rpms. At steady speed the bike's power seems to come and go, almost like a yo-yo effect. It doesn't feel smooth. I'm not sure if it could be something sensor related, the chain, fuel injection. Have you encountered this at all?
Thanks mate, sincerely appreciated. And yes the video have been done. It was in parts, here are the links Bringing Piston to Top dead center in compression stroke th-cam.com/video/_lAmh1xp45o/w-d-xo.html Adjusting clearance th-cam.com/video/OLi-INbjlTM/w-d-xo.html Cheers
Hi. Thank you for your video. I set mine today and following my set up my engine management light came on and stayed on. I managed to eliminate the light buy using the kill switch to turn the bike off as apposed to using the key.
On my Himalayan bs4, im unable to access the screw of the TPS. I have the same screw driver you have , with the torx bit. I still cant get to it without mincing the thread!
I am struggling. They have gone through everything but the fuel injector and the MAP. Checked the voltage. Checked for Air leaks, pinched tubing, swapped tanks and other parts. When the mechanic adjust things it works great for a few minutes. Eventually, when you pull the clutch in the idle drops below 1000 and then stalls. Not ALL the time but most of the time. Even when you set the idle to 1300-1400 rpm it will drop. Even in idle it might be problematic. So we are thinking it is the fuel injector but this is interesting.
Yes mate. You wont believe it but it's often the simplest of the things that we over look. Plug in a multi meter and get cracking. And please do let me know if any issues or questions. Cheers
I have erratic idling, stalling and restarting issues on my “2021” Himalayan. Surprisingly on this new Himalayan, there’s no TPS at the location you have mentioned in the video. Please help me out in locating the sensor if possible. Thank you
A side effects of watching your videos.. One wonders, does this bike need so much of maintenance and repairs?!.. Is it more than other bikes like the Xpulse or Apache200 or FZ25.. Would you recommend the Himalayan to someone who mostly just wants to enjoy the ride and not get stuck offroad with engine issues, and say give it for servicing/maintenance every 3 months.. Thanks for the videos, will be very useful!!
I am really sorry mate, as that is not what I was aiming for. Just trying to get people involved with their rides. Truly sorry if I gave out wrong impression. But thanks for pointing it out. Cheers :)
@@leuheanrede Hey no no.. c'mon.. In fact really thank you so much for making such DIY videos.. I was merely seeking your input whether the Himalayan needs any more maintenance than say the Xpulse etc.. Esp since Royal Enfield has (had) a bad rap on online forums like xbhp.. Where apparently it was even advised sometimes for folks who are more mechanically-aware.. So would you say the ownership experience in terms of maintenance is at par with other bikes?.. Thanks for the feedback and again thanks for the videos.. They are worth watching irrespective of which bike one owns.
Oh. Ok got it :) Yeah in a way. Maybe I am overdoing it on Himalayan as you mentioned because of bad reputation it has earned. But things aren't as bad as what we hear and read online. That being said, I own couple of Yamaha's and they do fare better in terms of part quality. On maintenance front, I do same odd jobs with interval spaced bit longer too. No denying that Cheers :)
Hey mate, yes you can but to be honest i have not faced any overheating issues, if your bike is overheating you need to get to the core issue, like is engine oil ok and topped up, is plug of right heat range and adjusted to speck, are clutch plates good, is lever play properly adjusted, etc, I have ridden it on long tours and in Delhi heat where temp rises to 47-48 but no heating issues, hope it helps, cheers :)
I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH MY HIMAYALAN, BETWEEN 2000 AND 3000 RPM THERE IS A JERKING WHEN I RECOVER THE RPM, I CHECKED THE TPS SENSOR AND IT IS IN THE CORRECT VALUES,
My bs6 classic 350 stalls at low revs with clutch pulled in. It doesn't idle many a time and the rpms dip below idle rpm and sometimes the bike stalls. The service center guys changed the magnet coil and cleaned the throttle body but to no avail. please suggest a solution.
Hey mate, first check that TPS senor cable is connected properly, it does come loose, the following vid will explain where it is located, but dont adjust it yet, first adjust the idle properly. even if after doing these two steps the issue isnt resolved then adjust the TPS sensor. Also i consider that Spark plug is properly adjusted before getting into these steps. cheers :) idle setting - th-cam.com/video/VhkReLSSIfs/w-d-xo.html spark plug adjustment - th-cam.com/video/EnMukroeGbY/w-d-xo.html
Hi there, I ride mahindra mojo. I notice fuel didn't seem to flow freely in slow or constant speeds in the lower gears. At low speeds, up to about 40kmph, acceleration is jerky and not smooth. The motion feels like a push or drag backward versus a surge forward. I did some much-needed maintenance, so I thought I'd eventually find the problem...but I haven't yet. After all this, it's still jerky during acceleration. On the highway the jerkiness goes away, but probably only because it's turning so fast that I don't notice. At low speed with the same RPMs, it's jerky. So I've tried to use that to rule out anything inside the engine. After watching your video, I may check the TPS setting. Any suggestions ?
Hi, so yes you are right, there is some fueling issue around 3000 rpm, It is not smooth, That is how the ECU has been mapped. Now I have tried a few things in hopes to make it better. Adjusting the TPS did make some difference and now bike has done 20000 kms so I think I have gotten used to it. As you said on highways at higher RPM its smooth already. Unfortunately Mojo one is non ajdustable. I am soory but did I talk with you about this on insta, my memory is failing me.
Bro I tried this, but in my Himalayan it's not working, i inserted a needle nd negative cable on the negative battery side nd the red wire on the needle which I inserted but nothing is showing for me in the multimeter, mine is bS4 Himalayan
help me I have bs6 Himalayan When riding suddenly the power gone and it stop , and then when i start it will start but when i put in gear the engine stop it happen 3 Time , i knw u think it is a side stand issue but no it not please help me
Great video as always!! I have not had many issues with stalling with my 2019...only once or twice but I do get some hesitation when accelerating and the bike seems to lurch or buck in second and third gear somewhere around 3500-4000rpms. New spark plug, K&N filter, battery is good, stator is fine as is the rregulator/recifier. Do you think this could be a TPS issue? I live in a much colder climate as well and the manual said that the voltage should be somewhere around .06-.07 and 5 volts when the throttle is at 100%.
Bro. Mine is BS3 Himalayan, where I couldn't adjust (Rotation) the sensor as you play in your vehicle. It has very limited movement... What's your suggestion to avoid stalling when sudden throttling...
Hey mate, limited movement could meant that the tool you are using is making it harder to access that Torx screw. As for stalling, does it happen at low RPM, High RPM or anywhere in the rev range?
@@leuheanrede No. I can able to access the screw and can loosen it. Stalling happens when I shift to every gear. If I reach max speed of 1st gear I'm getting dip. Similarly 2nd, 3rd, 4th. In simple words, if I throttle more to speed up the vehicle it dips there. I donno whether I answered your questions or confused you🙄. Pls share your email/ Contact number
It could be a loose connector to one of the sensor or a bad sensor itself if the bike is not going above 90. This vid just covers TPS sensor For fluctuating RPM please try to adjust the idle, I did a vid some time back, th-cam.com/video/VhkReLSSIfs/w-d-xo.html This is only applicable for BS4 models
Hahhaha, really glad you asked mate :) I did a BS4 to BS3 headlight light on off conversion plus also ABS on off switch, all in that old model switch gear so had put the sticker on for a couple of day to get familiarized with the setup ;D there are the vids Cheers Royal Enfield Himalayan | Battery saving tip | Low Beam / ABS On | Off Switch Option | Replacement th-cam.com/video/ybSUd87mYhw/w-d-xo.html Royal Enfield Himalayan BS4 ABS On/Off Switch | Handlebar Mount | DIY th-cam.com/video/oTWdykKZLY0/w-d-xo.html
Hey mate, few additional questions. Have you checked that evap hose is connected properly. And please do check all the electrical connector are properly connected, including this TPS one, loose connector can also lead to missing. Its hard to pin point just one thing without riding the bike.
Hey mate, has the carb diaphragm been checked for leaks and the rest of the passage for intake too, what is the color of the spark plug when you take it out,
@@leuheanrede Not checked diaprham, Checked spark plug color, it's good, and I am using Iredium spark plug, Adjusted TPS sensor myself to 0.56, same problem exists, after starting, it is running 2km fine without any problem, after 2km, it is giving missing and stalling, then after 3 min, it's starting again and stalling for every 200meters, I have checked the air hole of fuel tank, it's good, I don't think it is fuel problem, any suggestions please?
I have bs6 himalayan it stalls almost everytime, what would be the issue of it. I had changed my clutch play and rpm. Even after the issue is not solved. Please help me to get out of this issue.
Take the bike for a ride, for warming up the engine. When the bike is warmed up try increasing the idle rpm. Idle rpm adjust video is done by leuheanrede.
Yes, here you go mate, check that all TPS , MAP, O2 sensor cables are properly connected and do warm it up to ajdust idle th-cam.com/video/VhkReLSSIfs/w-d-xo.html Cheers :)
Greetings from the US! I just got my 2021 Himalayan and it takes about 4-5 starts to get it to idle. I tried this method and read 0.65V. I lowered it to 0.6V and see no difference. Do you think I should put it back to 0.65V?
I think your issue has to do more with the minimum idle rpm rather than TPS. Mine took at least 2 attempts at start until I raised the minimum to 1,000-1,100rpm cold
We should, I dont want to go into details of when we can't. But please follow standard procedure. Some time for DIY video shooting purposes I press starter just before the pump sound is about to die out. It has to be timed perfectly but dont mess with it. Cheers :)
@@vipulmodi8728 aah got it. That should have the same setting. Will check and confirm soon and let's keep it simple bro, you say sir and I feel depressed about my age 🤓
Hey mate. That happen when one of the wire connectors come loose. Please carefully check, if need be unplug and plug the ones on throttle body. TPS one will the the first one I would check, it seems connected but it's not. Once you are pressing it in you should hear the click.
I am asking cos if sensor was moved out of range then also it will not give correct reading to ecu and bike would stall as soon as we give any input on throttle. Please elaborate how it started. Did you change or adjust anything. Or did it just happen like out of nowhere
@@leuheanrede I have this stalling issue for a very long time, taking it to various service centre's dint help. After watching this video I thought there's something with the tps. I unplugged and plugged it back heard a click. But didn't help.
@@leuheanrede thanks for the speedy reply.I had a feeling your video probably would not pertain to my bs3 relic.I wonder if the Service Centres even bother with this check.But guess I will go with your advice of sticking with universal values.Thanks again and stay safe.
Hey mate. How many miles total and what's the status of sparkplug, when was it last changed and adjusted, is it stick bosch ur5cc or have you upgraded to some thing else. and when was last valve clearance done. Has the carb been cleaned, a simple retune after clean can do the trick.
hey man, my issue is a little bit opposite or different you can say! when I turn my Himalayans key to on position and turn on the engine by self-start button and let it warm up to 2 to 3 min after that when I perform throttle like little bit fast (not slow) at that time my engine stops! then I have to self-start my bike again and it does not turn off if I throttle it slowly! and also another issue is sometimes my fuel pump did not make a sound (petrol pumping sound after kill switch in off position) and my bike engine didn't get started! it's like sometimes 1 out of 10 times and sometimes continue more than 4 to 5 times than I have to switch off my bike by the key multiple times! any solution for both the problem? I just purchased my bike on 24th April 2021!
Hey mate. How many kms done in total. I ask becos for initial few 100 kms it is normal. After first service as the new parts are run in, things will get better. May I suggest that 2-3 mins of warm up in normal temperature is a bit too much. Idea is to warm it up for like a min say as we put our helmet jacket gloves etc on and start riding. There is no reason to give fast throttle at this time. We are suppose to ride it slow for first 5 min s as good practice at normal throttle speed. But as for the issue of stalling, its new so let it run for a 1000 kms then we can adjust the idle. I have done a video on idle adjustment if you need to do it and the bike has done over 1000 kms please have a look at idle adjustment. As for second issue, that sound should always be there when we turn the key on given that on off on the handle is on. If you are not hearing it that means probably the electrical connection on the pump on right side of tank is loose. Please check that. Considering yours is a new bike I suspect it's just the loose connector. If it was old then I would have suggested to check for wiring cut or fuse. Very few chances of pump failure in new bikes. Always keep 3-5 ltrs or above of fuel in tank to avoid any pump related issues in future. Last would be to check if battery is charged. Its a new bike so don't worry about tps at this point. Maybe later.
@@leuheanrede I rode my 444kms till now! and due to lockdown conditions, I can't take the bike to the service center and service on wheels is also not available due to pandemic. my first service is pending! and ignition fuse I have checked yesterday it was good no issue in that. and my tank is half right now and before that, I have encountered an F trip for around 3 to 5 kms. and I have also checked the connector below the fuel pump yesterday it seems ok to me but I'll check it once again. and can you plz tell me what can I do about the fuel pump issue? if it not resolved! because sometimes I got frustrated when my new bike didn't get started
@@Hemant._.Dhiman thats good, don't worry after the service things will get smoother, lockdown should get lifted in another week or 2 hopefully. About the pump issue, I am not sure i understand correctly whats happening. So ignition on and kill switch on. And the pump doesn't start. Is that what you're saying
@@leuheanrede yes! Sometimes i can hear a fuel pumping sound. But sometimes dont and that condition my bikes engine did not start i have to turn my key to off position and again it to on pisition until i hear the fuel pump working sound!
And sometimes its to embarrassing in traffic conditions coz its new, and it stall in second gear! And that time it did not start i have to move it to the side until it start😅 (but since its crossed the 300kms in total the stalling problem is less now)
Dude it's possible to set same parameter in bs6 engine, I bought the vechile 1 yr before, since I'm facing a same problem, so many time I'm diagnosed my bike but still continues...
@@mohammedabbas3620how much rpm does your bike idle at after riding for say like 20-30 minutes and when you stop at red light. It should be around 1200 to 1300 rpm. I have a vid on idle adjustment too in the diy maintenance Playlist. Let me know if you need I can post the link for that. Cheers
Hey mate Excellent question. And answer short and simple is No. Now you might come across a person every now and then who might say that the answer is yes. Let's understand,why? TPS is working g along with other sensors like MAP, O2, crank speed, ambient temperature, engine temperature etc. And all these sensor send data to ECU which than decides how much fuel needs to go in engine and guides injector to supply atomized fuel vapors. And this happens in milliseconds. The input comes to ecu and the output to injector on and on and on. The cycle keeps going. If at any moment O2 senses rich mixture, again input to ecu and again ecu will cut back on fuel through injector. Just manipulating TPS will not help as ecu in few cycles will be able to sense rich mixture and cut back on fuel. For richer mixtures an ECU piggy back over ride or something like a booster plug will be suitable. Cheers :)
@@leuheanrede guessed it would be the way you described it here-but had a doubt that with the changing voltage,maybe the mixture changes around the stoichiometric optimum and maybe the TPS can help in richening the mixture.
@@leuheanrede Interesting plug choice. Any reason you went for a hotter plug with a projected tip? and how much piston clearance do you have with the projected tip on the CPR plug?
🤫 idea is to test all 7, 8 and 9. Ideally 7 is closest to Bosch UR5CC that comes as stock. So technically not hotter then stock. And I must say NGK 7 is running the cleanest thus far as should be expected. 9 is just too darn cold to be honest and test results show that. 8 is kinda ok and sits perfectly in the middle. I keep switching after every 500 to 700 kms. And there is enough clearance for CPR as well. Not sure but maybe in future will post test results 🙃 cheers
:D indeed, but I have actually ported the Throttle body by 1.5 mils Thus pretty much taking care of that. but might consider going for a power commander/powertronic ECU piggy back to further the fueling needs, if needed. Will update soon Cheers :)

Hey mate. Its hard to diagnose online but my guess is some electrical issue, hoping that air filter spark plug are clean. First check if all connector are connected to respective sensors properly and there is no wire damage. If can't find anything its probably best to have RE GUYS have a look with their diagnostic tool at service center
Het mate That shouldnt happen with just changing the spark plug if the gap is ajdusted properly and in case of iridium, it should be .8 MM, please check gap and re adjust if needed. Cheers :)
@@leuheanrede yeah but it's a brand new spark plug which you recommended CR8EIX do you recommend I change the gap? Before it was stock one from Bosch and it was idling around 1.5rpm. But now it goes below 1 and sometimes stops when accelerating.
In that case some thing is seriously not right. Please understand my temptation to have a look at you bike and try and understand whats going on ;) But for DIY purpose, please refer to following vid to adjust spark plug gap and if even after adjusting the gap the problem still persists please switch back to stock RE plug to confirm if bike is back in rpm range gap for iridium - th-cam.com/video/cOGSWMMnTDI/w-d-xo.html gap for stock - th-cam.com/video/EnMukroeGbY/w-d-xo.html Cheers :)
I do and so should you, eventually you will get a knack of when all system checks, fuel pump are ready so you can hit the starter. But please always do Cheers :)
Hey
With so many sensors, the diagnostic tool at service centers may be a good option to check and diagnose problems. But some are accessible and easy to diagnose at home like the TPS.
ECU will all the sensors may seems intimidating but it is simple thing. Sensor (like TPS, MAP, O2, Crank speed, to name a few) provide input or information to the ECU which on predefined set of parameters from these inputs, guides the fuel injector and ignition timing, to feed fuel into the engine and advance or retard timing respectively
All these sensors work in conjunction to each other but if one fails the engine will still run on input from the sensor but ECU wont be able to fine tune thus there would be roughness and other teltale symptoms.
This one is regarding TPS. If not adjusted properly it can lead to pough/erratic idle and poor performance. Checking and adjusting is the sipmlest. Hope fully the video will come handy
Cheers :)
Thank uu
Would you know how and why a tps sensor would fail?
You saved my himalayan to be sold. I followed your videos to adjust the tps, the idle screw and upgraded the spark plug with the iridium one and now it is just perfect! The tps was adjusted from .60 to .57 and i could not believe the difference it did after it was adjusted. It is a completely different motorcycle now. Thank you so much!!
Hi can you share your no, it's not working for me on my Himalayan
Thanks for this. I bought a cheap multimeter and used a sewing needle taped to the probe. It showed .64 and I adjusted it to 5.6/5.7 (bouncing between the two). Started the bike up and it stayed running! Had to lower the idle and will continue to work on that next time I ride. I typically don’t work on my bikes, but I know the dealer wasn’t going to try this. Can’t believe it actually worked for me. Your sewing needle idea was great and saved a lot of money, instead of buying a probe kit. The engine feels so much more stable. Thanks again.
Thanks mate, I am glad you found this useful.
We are lucky that our model has all these adjustability. Newer models have different throttle body with no idle adjustment or TPS sensor adjustment😉
My himalayan is set 0.51 and is very difficult to start.

Thank you so much for this video. I did as you suggested and I've fixed my problem. I might have gone off slightly from the 5 6 that I set it at but my idle is now good and the bike no longer stalls at a stop. I was happy to be able to resolve this. Your videos are very helpful.
Thanks mate, really glad to know that you were able to resolve the issue. It's a simple fix and goes a long way in keeping the bike ride and sound healthy. Cheers :)
Nice work demystifying this job and great job demonstrating how to back-probe electrical connections to measure voltage--your tutorials are invaluable to me. Thank you so much, from Seattle.
I have rebuild my engine of a RE Continental GT 535... However in the process of removing the engine from the frame I disconnected the TPS sensor and after reinstalling the Engine the engine light is on. After some diagnostic trickery I know the cause is the TPS sensor (6 short light blinking after hardwiring the diagnostic line to the ground). Thanks for this super clear "how to" on how to set it up properly! I now know how to fix it :)
Being following you for quite a time now, the term you use to explain get me to a point that you belong to a mechanical engineering background. The butterfly we have to see such a amazing machine with so many moving parts surely amazed me. I have also tried opening the Himalayan apart and did some DIY of my own. Felt your work is also clean and clear to help out biking community 😁
Thanks for such kind words mate, I really appreciate it. :)
Idea for these DIY's originated from the love of all things mechanical and truly enjoying those parts mash up together and start singing in harmony like a perfect note as you mentioned.
I am truly glad to be of assistance and to learn that you have started DIYs. Kudos to you mate, and i will try to make sure to keep loading simple and true to best DIY vids, (among other nonsense which you can ignore :), because there will be some nonsense getting uploaded for sure ;) )
Cheers :)
You have a great video playlist for the Himalayan, I've referred to the troubleshooting and maintenance videos many many times. Keep up the outstanding vids.
Big appreciation from Bhutan as it’s benefiting lots of Himalayan family out here....I will be very happy if we can connect through mail. Thank you
Thanks mate, glad to be of assistance, have a good one.

@@leuheanrede thank you. We will definitely contact you. Right now our country is in lockdown due to Covid.
Another great informative video, thanks. Mine is starting to get a bit temperamental idling since installing a ejk fuel controller. I've done this adjustment to my classic 500 so I know it works, it made a great difference. I'll be doing this tomorrow to my Himalayan tomorrow.
Loved it !! Bought Himalayan 2 days back. This is really informative!
Thanks so much for such a detailed video instruction, step by step. I have a 2022 RE Himalayan and it has been stalling at startup every time. I will test the TPS voltage / position and adjust as needed. Thanks again!
Hey mate, thanks for your kind words. Now unfortunately, I have not worked on 2022 himalayan, I have looked at the throttle body of new models and found them to be different in design and function. So not sure if TPS adjustability is available. Please do let me know if it is. Cheers
For these videos, sir you have my gratitude and respects.
Thank you
Hahaha and I thank you Sir for tolerating my nincompoopish vids :D, I can only hope you found this vid handy to resolve any issues if they existed, cheers :)

Thank you mate. I really appreciate it.

Excellent video ... You know what you're talking .. amazing .. thank you ❤️
Thanks mate 🙂
thx for the tip now it runs again :D
Dear friend,
I had been and still an enthusiast about the vehicles and bikes.
1982 had a Enfield Bullet 350.
It was meticulously maintained.
Now the scene is enormously changed.
New technology and digital fly by wires system had made things better.
Here about this video and the demonstration with explanation by you:
All correct and to the point they are.
My few dull & dumb questions....are:
1) Let me assume the TPS position is at perfect position say +/-- zero.
Now by stepping down to minus one, the engine RPM will lower and viceversa?
Is this correct?
(One may not do this for setting the idle rpm.)
2) Regarding setting the idle RPM:
As demonstrated in your other upload:
The idle adjustment brass screw when turned in either of the direction: Does it physically lifts the throttle.
OR
Does it regulates the Air flow resulting in making the fuel-mix, lean or rich.
Please.
Hope to go through all of your uploads and will be asking a lot, in future.
Regards.
All the best.

Hi brother. Do you know what alternative replacement part TPS to buy for the Himalayan? Mine seems to be broken. Any advice?
Informative video brother.. my Bs6 2023 himalayan started to cut off when i down shift to lower gears like 2nd or 1st. Immediately after downshift and the clutch is still disengaged the engine cuts off abruptly. This is very annoying in traffic situations and while doing some offroading. Is this a TPS issue or something else?
I have an issue while riding in lower gears and around 3 to 4 rpms. At steady speed the bike's power seems to come and go, almost like a yo-yo effect. It doesn't feel smooth. I'm not sure if it could be something sensor related, the chain, fuel injection. Have you encountered this at all?
Hey,
Great video as always just a small request can you make a video how to adjust the tappet on himalayan.
Thanks mate, sincerely appreciated. And yes the video have been done. It was in parts, here are the links

Hi. Thank you for your video. I set mine today and following my set up my engine management light came on and stayed on. I managed to eliminate the light buy using the kill switch to turn the bike off as apposed to using the key.
On my Himalayan bs4, im unable to access the screw of the TPS. I have the same screw driver you have , with the torx bit. I still cant get to it without mincing the thread!
Great video, is this TPS sensor turns anticlockwise ? Do you have product number for sensor ?
Good information and how guide😊
thank you for this advice (the needle was a good point;), also, a stitch in time saves nine! (dad jokes - sorry)
😄haha. Indeed mate. Happy DIYing. Cheers
I am struggling. They have gone through everything but the fuel injector and the MAP. Checked the voltage. Checked for Air leaks, pinched tubing, swapped tanks and other parts. When the mechanic adjust things it works great for a few minutes. Eventually, when you pull the clutch in the idle drops below 1000 and then stalls. Not ALL the time but most of the time. Even when you set the idle to 1300-1400 rpm it will drop. Even in idle it might be problematic. So we are thinking it is the fuel injector but this is interesting.
Yes mate. You wont believe it but it's often the simplest of the things that we over look. Plug in a multi meter and get cracking. And please do let me know if any issues or questions. Cheers
@@leuheanrede Even I have the same problem. What can I do to solve it?
Great explanation as always. Thank you again.
Thanks mate, much appreciated , Cheers :)
Hi.. mine is 8.6 company setting. Now I am facing engine stops when I go high speed to low speed like cross the hump engine stop, what I do?
I have erratic idling, stalling and restarting issues on my “2021” Himalayan.
Surprisingly on this new Himalayan, there’s no TPS at the location you have mentioned in the video.
Please help me out in locating the sensor if possible. Thank you
Hey mate, yup new himalayans have a new throttle body with integrated sensors unit, not much can be done on them
Very well explained ...thnks for sharing 👍
Thanks sis, Cheers :)
Hii.. please do a long term review video of Himalayan!!!
Incredible
Very nice video
A side effects of watching your videos.. One wonders, does this bike need so much of maintenance and repairs?!.. Is it more than other bikes like the Xpulse or Apache200 or FZ25.. Would you recommend the Himalayan to someone who mostly just wants to enjoy the ride and not get stuck offroad with engine issues, and say give it for servicing/maintenance every 3 months.. Thanks for the videos, will be very useful!!
I am really sorry mate, as that is not what I was aiming for. Just trying to get people involved with their rides. Truly sorry if I gave out wrong impression. But thanks for pointing it out.
Cheers :)
@@leuheanrede Hey no no.. c'mon.. In fact really thank you so much for making such DIY videos.. I was merely seeking your input whether the Himalayan needs any more maintenance than say the Xpulse etc.. Esp since Royal Enfield has (had) a bad rap on online forums like xbhp.. Where apparently it was even advised sometimes for folks who are more mechanically-aware.. So would you say the ownership experience in terms of maintenance is at par with other bikes?.. Thanks for the feedback and again thanks for the videos.. They are worth watching irrespective of which bike one owns.
Oh. Ok got it :)
Yeah in a way. Maybe I am overdoing it on Himalayan as you mentioned because of bad reputation it has earned. But things aren't as bad as what we hear and read online. That being said, I own couple of Yamaha's and they do fare better in terms of part quality. On maintenance front, I do same odd jobs with interval spaced bit longer too. No denying that
Cheers :)
Tell me any ideas like fixing cooling fan in radiator or changing bigger radiator to reduce the heat
Hey mate, yes you can but to be honest i have not faced any overheating issues, if your bike is overheating you need to get to the core issue, like is engine oil ok and topped up, is plug of right heat range and adjusted to speck, are clutch plates good, is lever play properly adjusted, etc, I have ridden it on long tours and in Delhi heat where temp rises to 47-48 but no heating issues, hope it helps, cheers :)
If I get 4.94V at the Blue wire the TPS has failed!? Also, I can only replace the whole throttle body!? No TPS available as a separate unit!
Subscribed......great channel and content...kudos brother
Thnkas mate, glad to know you are finding the content useful, that adds fuel to the fire, thanks and Cheers:)
Beautiful as always.

I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH MY HIMAYALAN, BETWEEN 2000 AND 3000 RPM THERE IS A JERKING WHEN I RECOVER THE RPM, I CHECKED THE TPS SENSOR AND IT IS IN THE CORRECT VALUES,
My bs6 classic 350 stalls at low revs with clutch pulled in. It doesn't idle many a time and the rpms dip below idle rpm and sometimes the bike stalls. The service center guys changed the magnet coil and cleaned the throttle body but to no avail. please suggest a solution.
Hey mate, first check that TPS senor cable is connected properly, it does come loose, the following vid will explain where it is located, but dont adjust it yet, first adjust the idle properly. even if after doing these two steps the issue isnt resolved then adjust the TPS sensor. Also i consider that Spark plug is properly adjusted before getting into these steps. cheers :)

Hi there, I ride mahindra mojo. I notice fuel didn't seem to flow freely in slow or constant speeds in the lower gears.
At low speeds, up to about 40kmph, acceleration is jerky and not smooth. The motion feels like a push or drag backward versus a surge forward. I did some much-needed maintenance, so I thought I'd eventually find the problem...but I haven't yet.
After all this, it's still jerky during acceleration. On the highway the jerkiness goes away, but probably only because it's turning so fast that I don't notice. At low speed with the same RPMs, it's jerky. So I've tried to use that to rule out anything inside the engine.
After watching your video, I may check the TPS setting. Any suggestions ?
Hi, so yes you are right, there is some fueling issue around 3000 rpm, It is not smooth, That is how the ECU has been mapped. Now I have tried a few things in hopes to make it better. Adjusting the TPS did make some difference and now bike has done 20000 kms so I think I have gotten used to it. As you said on highways at higher RPM its smooth already.
Unfortunately Mojo one is non ajdustable. I am soory but did I talk with you about this on insta, my memory is failing me.
@@leuheanrede Yes, we have shared our views on insta. Thank you.

Heyvmate bikevis idling very low it seems or maybe the TPS CONNECTOR is loose.
When you start what is the idle Rpm it shows
Great video as always!! I have not had many issues with stalling with my 2019...only once or twice but I do get some hesitation when accelerating and the bike seems to lurch or buck in second and third gear somewhere around 3500-4000rpms. New spark plug, K&N filter, battery is good, stator is fine as is the rregulator/recifier. Do you think this could be a TPS issue? I live in a much colder climate as well and the manual said that the voltage should be somewhere around .06-.07 and 5 volts when the throttle is at 100%.
Thanks mate, yes start with setting the correct idle setting only then move to TPS.
But to be honest that was a common issue on BS4 model, cheers
@@leuheanrede I'll give it a try!! Thank you!
Good information 👍
Thanks mate :D
Great video. Thank you
I wonder if there’s a fix for the compass?
Bro. Mine is BS3 Himalayan, where I couldn't adjust (Rotation) the sensor as you play in your vehicle. It has very limited movement... What's your suggestion to avoid stalling when sudden throttling...
Hey mate, limited movement could meant that the tool you are using is making it harder to access that Torx screw. As for stalling, does it happen at low RPM, High RPM or anywhere in the rev range?
I did mine and that's fairly easy! You need to loose the T20 torque screw to move it!
@@leuheanrede No. I can able to access the screw and can loosen it.
Stalling happens when I shift to every gear. If I reach max speed of 1st gear I'm getting dip. Similarly 2nd, 3rd, 4th.
In simple words, if I throttle more to speed up the vehicle it dips there.
I donno whether I answered your questions or confused you🙄.
Pls share your email/ Contact number
I have a fluctuating rpm issue when i start up
It moves between 1.1 to 2k
Also i am getting very bad throttle response the bike doesn't go beyond 90
It could be a loose connector to one of the sensor or a bad sensor itself if the bike is not going above 90. This vid just covers TPS sensor
For fluctuating RPM please try to adjust the idle, I did a vid some time back, th-cam.com/video/VhkReLSSIfs/w-d-xo.html

So won't the sensor move with vibration? Or is it secured?
Yes mate it would but only if the torx screw is loose. As that holds it securely in place once we adjust and tighten it back.

Take the bike for a ride, for warming up the engine. When the bike is warmed up try increasing the idle rpm. Idle rpm adjust video is done by leuheanrede.

Greetings from the US! I just got my 2021 Himalayan and it takes about 4-5 starts to get it to idle. I tried this method and read 0.65V. I lowered it to 0.6V and see no difference. Do you think I should put it back to 0.65V?
I think your issue has to do more with the minimum idle rpm rather than TPS.
Mine took at least 2 attempts at start until I raised the minimum to 1,000-1,100rpm cold
Like shouldn't we wait untill efi sound ends before starting
We should, I dont want to go into details of when we can't. But please follow standard procedure.
Some time for DIY video shooting purposes I press starter just before the pump sound is about to die out. It has to be timed perfectly but dont mess with it. Cheers :)

Hi, my himalayan idles fine but when I touch my throttle it stalls. Could you give a suggestion please.
Hey mate. That happen when one of the wire connectors come loose. Please carefully check, if need be unplug and plug the ones on throttle body. TPS one will the the first one I would check, it seems connected but it's not. Once you are pressing it in you should hear the click.

@@raguramravikumar1884 ok so were you trying to adjust TPS.
I am asking cos if sensor was moved out of range then also it will not give correct reading to ecu and bike would stall as soon as we give any input on throttle.

Hey mate. How many miles total and what's the status of sparkplug, when was it last changed and adjusted, is it stick bosch ur5cc or have you upgraded to some thing else. and when was last valve clearance done. Has the carb been cleaned, a simple retune after clean can do the trick.
@@leuheanrede Yes, i have replaced sparkplug with titanium plug 1 month ago, tried everything except this TPS check
hello, where can i buy it
TPS . sensor
hey man, my issue is a little bit opposite or different you can say!
when I turn my Himalayans key to on position and turn on the engine by self-start button and let it warm up to 2 to 3 min after that when I perform throttle like little bit fast (not slow) at that time my engine stops!
then I have to self-start my bike again and it does not turn off if I throttle it slowly!
and also another issue is sometimes my fuel pump did not make a sound (petrol pumping sound after kill switch in off position) and my bike engine didn't get started! it's like sometimes 1 out of 10 times and sometimes continue more than 4 to 5 times than I have to switch off my bike by the key multiple times!
any solution for both the problem? I just purchased my bike on 24th April 2021!
Hey mate. How many kms done in total. I ask becos for initial few 100 kms it is normal. After first service as the new parts are run in, things will get better. May I suggest that 2-3 mins of warm up in normal temperature is a bit too much. Idea is to warm it up for like a min say as we put our helmet jacket gloves etc on and start riding. There is no reason to give fast throttle at this time. We are suppose to ride it slow for first 5 min s as good practice at normal throttle speed.
But as for the issue of stalling, its new so let it run for a 1000 kms then we can adjust the idle. I have done a video on idle adjustment if you need to do it and the bike has done over 1000 kms please have a look at idle adjustment.
As for second issue, that sound should always be there when we turn the key on given that on off on the handle is on. If you are not hearing it that means probably the electrical connection on the pump on right side of tank is loose. Please check that. Considering yours is a new bike I suspect it's just the loose connector. If it was old then I would have suggested to check for wiring cut or fuse. Very few chances of pump failure in new bikes. Always keep 3-5 ltrs or above of fuel in tank to avoid any pump related issues in future. Last would be to check if battery is charged.
Its a new bike so don't worry about tps at this point. Maybe later.
@@leuheanrede I rode my 444kms till now!
and due to lockdown conditions, I can't take the bike to the service center and service on wheels is also not available due to pandemic.
my first service is pending!
and ignition fuse I have checked yesterday it was good no issue in that.
and my tank is half right now and before that, I have encountered an F trip for around 3 to 5 kms.
and I have also checked the connector below the fuel pump yesterday it seems ok to me but I'll check it once again.
and can you plz tell me what can I do about the fuel pump issue? if it not resolved! because sometimes I got frustrated when my new bike didn't get started
@@Hemant._.Dhiman thats good, don't worry after the service things will get smoother, lockdown should get lifted in another week or 2 hopefully.
About the pump issue, I am not sure i understand correctly whats happening.
So ignition on and kill switch on. And the pump doesn't start. Is that what you're saying
@@leuheanrede yes!
Sometimes i can hear a fuel pumping sound.
But sometimes dont and that condition my bikes engine did not start i have to turn my key to off position and again it to on pisition until i hear the fuel pump working sound!
And sometimes its to embarrassing in traffic conditions coz its new, and it stall in second gear! And that time it did not start i have to move it to the side until it start😅 (but since its crossed the 300kms in total the stalling problem is less now)
Dude it's possible to set same parameter in bs6 engine, I bought the vechile 1 yr before, since I'm facing a same problem, so many time I'm diagnosed my bike but still continues...

TPS has some role in making bike lean-if yes,how to modify TPS to make mixture richer???
Hey mate
Excellent question. And answer short and simple is No. Now you might come across a person every now and then who might say that the answer is yes.
Let's understand,why? TPS is working g along with other sensors like MAP, O2, crank speed, ambient temperature, engine temperature etc. And all these sensor send data to ECU which than decides how much fuel needs to go in engine and guides injector to supply atomized fuel vapors. And this happens in milliseconds. The input comes to ecu and the output to injector on and on and on. The cycle keeps going. If at any moment O2 senses rich mixture, again input to ecu and again ecu will cut back on fuel through injector.
Just manipulating TPS will not help as ecu in few cycles will be able to sense rich mixture and cut back on fuel. For richer mixtures an ECU piggy back over ride or something like a booster plug will be suitable.
Cheers :)
@@leuheanrede guessed it would be the way you described it here-but had a doubt that with the changing voltage,maybe the mixture changes around the stoichiometric
optimum and maybe the TPS can help in richening the mixture.
What spark plug are you using bro ???
He mate at the time of shooting this vid i was running NGK CR8EIX, but currently i have switched to NGK CPR7EAIX, cheers :)
@@leuheanrede Interesting plug choice. Any reason you went for a hotter plug with a projected tip? and how much piston clearance do you have with the projected tip on the CPR plug?
🤫 idea is to test all 7, 8 and 9. Ideally 7 is closest to Bosch UR5CC that comes as stock. So technically not hotter then stock. And I must say NGK 7 is running the cleanest thus far as should be expected. 9 is just too darn cold to be honest and test results show that. 8 is kinda ok and sits perfectly in the middle. I keep switching after every 500 to 700 kms. And there is enough clearance for CPR as well. Not sure but maybe in future will post test results 🙃 cheers
While TPS is unplugged, get a booster plug on it 😃👍🏻
:D indeed,
but I have actually ported the Throttle body by 1.5 mils
Thus pretty much taking care of that. but might consider going for a power commander/powertronic ECU piggy back to further the fueling needs, if needed.
Will update soon
Cheers :)
leuheanrede, I thought about a power commander but it was just too expensive, booster plug was much much cheaper 👍🏻

Hey mate. Its hard to diagnose online but my guess is some electrical issue, hoping that air filter spark plug are clean.
First check if all connector are connected to respective sensors properly and there is no wire damage. If can't find anything its probably best to have RE GUYS have a look with their diagnostic tool at service center
I have had been having same problem since I changed the spark plug to iridium.
Het mate
That shouldnt happen with just changing the spark plug if the gap is ajdusted properly and in case of iridium, it should be .8 MM, please check gap and re adjust if needed.
Cheers :)
@@leuheanrede yeah but it's a brand new spark plug which you recommended CR8EIX do you recommend I change the gap? Before it was stock one from Bosch and it was idling around 1.5rpm. But now it goes below 1 and sometimes stops when accelerating.
In that case some thing is seriously not right. Please understand my temptation to have a look at you bike and try and understand whats going on ;)
But for DIY purpose, please refer to following vid to adjust spark plug gap and if even after adjusting the gap the problem still persists please switch back to stock RE plug to confirm if bike is back in rpm range

gap for stock - th-cam.com/video/EnMukroeGbY/w-d-xo.html

Seems like you dun wait till efi starts complete
I do and so should you, eventually you will get a knack of when all system checks, fuel pump are ready so you can hit the starter. But please always do
