Changed Battery - Bike now won't start with Tilt angle sensor connected.

As per title. Changed the batt, now with the sensor connected - when I press the start button - the fuel pump primes again and nothing happens.

When I disconnecte the sensor it fires up fine but have the red EFI light on...

ANy Ideas ?

I took the sensor apart and the ring inside it is very loose. Don't know if thats normal.

the ring is suppose too be loose........make sure the tilt sensor is the right way up should be written on it or an arrow....sounds like u have it upside down

Thanks for confirming that it should be loose. I never took it out of the bracket so it was the right way up.
Will try connecting it again once it stops raining...
