PCX 160 and other Honda keyless ignition bikes question

Featured Replies

Simple question. I think I am stupidly missing something.

 

In the UK, I had a Honda ADV 350 (keyless ignition). In Thailand I now have a PCX 160 with very similar keyless ignition.

 

About 25% of the time, when I turn on the PCX, the hazard lights are flashing. I have been told this is because I have touched the hazard lights switch. I don't think I have.

 

This phenomenon never happened with the ADV.

 

Is there some other reason the hazard lights come on?

Apparently it's very easy to turn on by just brushing the switch when you get off...

Yep, I had a good look getting on the bike this morning.

Found it only takes a relative minor touch on the angled part of the switch to activate, to deactivate I have been hitting the thicker portion of the switch which does seem to take a bit of effort in comparison.

So I am now thinking it must be me when I get off the bike

How about that! I never would have thought it.

 

On occasion, it has taken me 5 to 10 seconds to realise and like a plonker I have been going down the road with my hazards on.

Ha! I figured it out.

 

When I opened the seat to put the helmet in the storage space, the seat presses the hazard lights switch on the right handlebar.

 

And there is the answer.

And the reason it never happened with my ADV 350 is because the seat only opened to around 60°.

with keyless ignition, i always think "the manufacturers have solved a problem that never existed in the first place" ....
