Help thread: Suzuki DL650 V-Strom direct powering fuel pump as temporary diagnostic

For Suzuki DL650 V-Strom direct powering fuel pump as temporary diagnostic, I would not start by clearing codes. Photograph the code, check battery voltage at rest and while cranking, then inspect the connector related to the system. A weak supply can make a scanner sound more dramatic than the bike really is.

Also check whether anything was changed recently. The last hands near the bike are often the first suspect, even when those hands are our own. That is how I would approach Suzuki DL650 V-Strom direct powering fuel pump as temporary diagnostic before spending money.
