Bike no longer saving log files?

[TCMB371]

I recently tried downloading log files off my bike after not having done it in over a year. Multitool isn't pulling any log files off the bike over the past 18 months. Is this happening with anyone else? I can't imagine its a scenario where the onboard memory is full and thus the bike is no longer saving log files, because its supposed to overwrite old ones in that case.

Multitool code is designed to look on the bike at the most recent log files, compare to your laptop's log file directory, and download missing ones. It's supposed to work itself backwards from most recent to oldest. Perhaps there is a bug in the code or something else is going on. I'll have to find time to debug i guess.

Any chance the laptop & bike file dates don't match up? Maybe if the laptop or its files had incorrect/weird dates, MT might not recognize the bike files as new (just a guess).

I thought of that, but i have my laptop hooked up to the bike almost every time i'm at the track, and always sync the dates.

The SD card might have died too. They're not really made to be shaken like an Irish baby...

Would there be any indication on the bike of the SD card dying, or would the bike run normally, just not recording log files?

If that were the case I wouldn't be able to read old log files from it. It would be odd if only writing to it was broken.

Fair point.

SD cards are notorious for potentially being corrupted. The mini SD card living in the ACM is more commercial grade than automotive, ive seen a few of these cards go bad.

I ran MT on my laptop last night and saw logging traffic occur, could also be an issue with the ACM not communicating.

Have you tried this MT on any other bikes?

Let me correct you here since I sourced those
They're industrial grade, but while they last a lot longer in cars, they don't see the kind of vibrations/abuse a dirtbike submits them to.

Is the card easy to remove from the ACM? That would be magnitudes faster than downloading the logs at 10kb/sec via multitool

Ha!





No.
