If your KTM Motorcycle engine turns but doesn't start, several factors could be at play. Ensure you are following the correct start procedure and are not opening the throttle while starting. A blown fuse 3 could be the culprit, requiring replacement. Check that the plug-in connection of the fuel hose is properly connected. A defect in the fuel injection system may exist, requiring a diagnostic tool. The air filter might be very dirty, so remove and reinstall it. Finally, a dirty fuel filter could be the problem, so check the fuel pressure.

If your KTM Motorcycle has high oil consumption, it could be because the engine oil level is too high; check the engine oil level. Another possibility is that the engine oil is too thin (low viscosity), so change the engine oil and oil filter and clean the oil screens.

If your KTM Motorcycle engine doesn't crank when you press the electric starter, it could be due to several reasons. You might not be following the correct start procedure. The battery could be discharged, requiring a recharge or an open-circuit current check. A fuse (1, 2, or 3) might be blown, necessitating a replacement. The main fuse could also be burned out, so replace it. Finally, there might be no ground connection; in this case, you should check the ground connection.

Why does my KTM 2016 690 DUKE engine overheat?

Mr. Vincent LawsonAug 28, 2025
Your KTM Motorcycle engine may overheat due to several reasons. There might be too little coolant in the cooling system, so check for leaks and inspect the coolant level in the compensating tank. The radiator fins could be very dirty, requiring cleaning. Foam formation in the cooling system could be the problem, so drain and refill/bleed the cooling system. A buckled or damaged radiator hose should be replaced. A faulty thermostat should be checked. A blown fuse 4 needs to be replaced. Finally, a defect in the radiator fan system could be the issue, so check the radiator fan system.

The ABS warning lamp on your KTM Motorcycle might light up for a few reasons. The ABS fuse could be blown, requiring replacement. There might be a large difference in wheel speeds between the front and rear wheels; in this case, stop the vehicle, switch off the ignition, and start it again. A malfunction in the ABS could also be the cause, so you may need to read out the ABS fault memory using the KTM diagnostics tool.

If your KTM Motorcycle only turns when the clutch lever is drawn, it's likely because the vehicle is in gear. Shift the gear to neutral. Also, if the vehicle is in gear and the side stand is folded out, shift the gear to neutral.
