Why does the motorcycle engine fault light come on and fail to start?

The reason why the motorcycle engine fault light comes on and fails to start is due to cold weather. Possible reasons why the motorcycle engine fault light comes on and fails to start: In winter, the weather is cold, so it is easy to have difficulty starting. In the warmer climate of the south, apart from motorcycle malfunctions, starting issues do not occur. In the northeast during early spring or late autumn when temperatures drop below 0°C in the morning, the engine oil thickens, causing difficulty in starting. Methods to try starting: Use the kick starter. In winter, when temperatures are low and starting is difficult, adjust the choke. Normally, it should be fully pressed down, but during cold starts in winter, it should be set to the top position. After the engine starts, leave it for about 15 seconds and then set it to the middle position. Once the motorcycle is fully warmed up, return it to the normal position, and it should start with one attempt. If it doesn't start after two or three tries, avoid using the electric starter. The reason is that frequent use of the electric starter when the engine fails to start can drain the battery, potentially damaging it.
