Display shows error 51
Possible cause(s): Improper accelerator pedal linkage, faulty accelerator sensor, faulty main harness, faulty logic unit.

How the error code is triggered:
Accelerator sensor voltage is out of range of 0.2v to 4.8v.
Sensor voltage is 1.41v or more when accelerator switch is opened
Sensor voltage is 0.3v or less when accelerator switch is closed

So either your accelerator linkage on the pedal has moved causing the sensor to go out of range or the sensor itself has a bad spot it's wiper causing the voltage to fluctuate out of range triggering the error. Could also be damaged wires on the harness.

All of the above also applies to the EX models as well ;o)

Good luck

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
