I have a 2001 tiger 955i, the wiring loom on that is set up to accept the fitting of a factory alarm I believe manufactured by datatool. On mine this is under the seat cowl. It will have only been fitted if it was fitted at new or a later owner decided to fit it.
I believe a Talon alarm ( http://www.talonalarms.com/ )may be a straight fit.

I used some of the wiring and modified the loom to fit a spy alarm from http://www.cyclonealarms.co.uk/

check your reflector it is found near your battery!

One thing to look for is the location of the 02 sensor. With the stock exhaust, if the 02 sensor is located near the right footpeg, it is an 05-06 and early 07 exhaust configuration. That is the easiest way to tell. You can also tell by VIN but I do not know the demarcation from one model to the next.

sounds like fuel problem ! what bike have you got and is it carb or injectors , is it elec fuel pump or gravity fed and how old is the fuel in the tank ?

Instructions

1. Electrical
   • 1 Remove the battery cover using the appropriate tool from the Triumph tool kit. Connect the red and black voltage meter clips to the positive and negative battery posts. Red is always positive. Black is negative and ground.
   • 2 Switch the voltage meter to 12 volts and check the reading. A fully charged battery will put out 12 to 14 volts. A reading of less than 12 volts indicates the battery must be charged. Batteries that have been inactive for long periods of time respond best to a slow, overnight charge. Remove the meter clips and charge the battery, if necessary, before proceeding.
   • 3 Refer to the workshop manual and locate the ignition coil. Connect the red and black meter clips to the positive and negative terminals on the coil. Switch the voltage meter to 12 volts and note the reading. Typical ignition coil resistance is 0.5 to 1.5 ohms, or about one volt. A lack of resistance indicates the coil must be replaced.
   • 4 Connect the red meter clip to the gray wire terminal on the back of the ignition switch. Connect the black clip to the head of a nearby bolt as ground. Turn the ignition switch to the "On" position and note the meter reading. A reading of less than 12 volts indicates a problem with the ignition switch.
   Fuel System
   • 5 Close the fuel petcock using the selector lever. Depending on the year and model of the motorcycle, the petcock is located at the underside, or at one side of the gas tank. Trace the path of the fuel line from the petcock to the carburetor or the fuel pump.
   • 6 Remove the clamp where the fuel line connects to the carburetor or fuel pump using the appropriate tool. Position a glass jar under the connection. Pull the fuel line off and direct the end of the line into the jar.
   • 7 Open the petcock and observe the flow of fuel into the jar. A lack of a consistent fuel-flow suggests a clogged petcock or clogged in-line fuel filter. A consistent flow of fuel indicates a problem with the carburetor. Proceed to the final steps to troubleshoot a fuel pump.
   • 8 Close the fuel petcock. Reconnect the fuel line from the gas tank to the fuel pump and tighten the clamp. Remove the clamp that secures the fuel line at the output connection on opposite side of the pump. Hold the glass jar under the connection and pull the output line off the fuel pump.
   • 9 Open the fuel petcock. Turn the ignition switch to the "On" position. A lack of fuel flow from the fuel pump output line indicates that the electrical fuse is bad, or the pump must be replaced. Turn the ignition switch to the "Off" position and close the fuel petcock. Refer to the workshop manual for carburetor information, fuse replacement and fuel pump information.

it sounds like your starter relay is not working. this happens from time to time. Get out the test light, this is your first weapon in elec. problem solving. it you dont know where the starter relay is at on your bike follow the power wire from your battery to the relay. make sure you have power at the relay on the battery side of it now put your test light on the starter side of the realy and hit the ignition, did it light up?? if not you need to make sure your getting power it the starter button. if your not check the fuse if you are or you getting power out of the switch, if so make sure its getting to the starter relay. thats just about all the starting system, Make sure that all your safety switches are working as they should, not know your model I'm not sure which ones your bike has. on most bikes there is a clutch, neutral, and side stand safety switches. you can check those with your miulty meter on the ohm setting. please contact me with your finding. The best of luck

1.Make sure the wire hasnt come off the sensor, if it touches the motor it will turn the light on.
2. buy a new sensor
3. you can screw a gauge into the sensor hole and check actual oil pressure if your still not sure (just guessing but it may be about 3-4 psi)
to get really technical, connect the new sensor to the gauge and a regulated air supply, and use a multi meter to see what pressure the sensor switches, this process can also check the old sensor.

At a guess its most likely the sensor, they can fail and often fail in the light on position, if it failed in the light off position you could lose oil pressure and not know.
Good luck

You'll need to go to the dealer and have them reset that light......Good luck....Tim

Parts Suppliers. The normal thing to think is "I'll just bypass them", but the tip over sensor cuts power to the engine if you drop the bike riding it. https://www.google.com/search?q=2001+Triumph+600TT+kickstand+and+tip+over+sensor ..
