Concur. The OBD2 connector on the bike doesn't connect to the ECU when not in use, it's just clipped in place under the seat. So just leave your OBD2 scanner connected while you're riding. If you have a bluetooth one such as the OBDLink LX/MX it's even easier as you don't need to worry about cables. Connect to the bluetooth OBD2 scanner via TuneECU as you would normally (or use another OBD app such as Torque Pro) and just record on your phone while you're riding. If nothing happens, like Frans said, just delete the recording and try again on your next ride.

assume you are using a cable and tuneecu on android and know where the plug is on your 2020 model

What cable to plug into android, and what plug are you meaning on bike? Plug under seat that has 16 holes or USB outlet?
Why don't you pm me so we don't bore our readers!
 
On the contrary, this is a good discussion to help educate others on how to use an OBD scanner to troubleshoot issues.

You've told me you've used TuneECU already on your bike. How did you connect it? Did you use a physical cable to connect between your phone and the OBD2 port or did you use a bluetooth adaptor such as the OBDLink LX/MX?

In either case, all Frans is saying is to use your existing method to connect and then use the TuneECU app to record a ride.
 
Guys, this may be a very stupid thought, but when we still don't have a solution, one starts looking in "unlikely places".
As we know, turning the throttle forward on this bike disengages the Cruise control.
Is it possible that as one is coming to a stop, one is inadvertently pushing a little on the throttle (turning it forward, same way one would disengage the cruise control), and this in turn is causing the engine to stall? Would explain why sometimes when one is coming to a hard stop, maybe leaning on the throttle grip, bike stalls.
Unlikely but just a thought.
 
Good discussion detectives. I am hoping that we can record something concrete when this happens and show it to dealership or send it to Triumph.
 
Good point. Maybe Maurice can test that.

indeed, plug under the seat with the 16 holes. I'm sure other are not bored
 
OK, I'm all for the discussion for everyone.
Big 16 prong plug under seat must be removed, unplugged, from ecu. That plug goes into 16 prong obd2 scanner. Tuneecu is app on phone. You connect phone bluetooth to the app. Paired! Now app can connect to bike by selecting "connect" on app.

I really think there is a misunderstanding with this statement. Again, when the plug is removed from it's storage location under the seat, you're not unplugging it from the ECU. That harness is permanently connected to the ECU on the other end, but the 16 prong OBD connector is not connected to anything when stored. It's just an open connection.
