"This error is a fusing thermistor error, it can mean:

The fusing lamp is not connected. Reconnecting it may solve the problem.
Thermistor is bent or gone bad. You may need to replace it.
Or, the thermistor position is incorrect.

To try and reset the code press:
Clear Mode, 107, Clear/Stop and hold for 5 seconds."

Disclaimer:
Please note that this detail is just for information. Do not try to repair a machine if you are not a qualified technician. Technicians should also not take this information as a substitute of technician manuals.

Error 30 means "Malfunctions related to the shutter have been detected". Recharge the battery, remove and replace it after about 20 seconds, then do a reset to default settings through the camera menu. If it still won't work you'll need send it in for repairs.

Whats the make and modle of the machine? Also what are the numbers that fallow Malfunction detected.

Fault Code: 33
Diagnostic Code: 30
Symptom: Open circuit is detected in the primary lead of the ignition coil (# 1, #4).
Probable cause of malfunction:
Open circuit in wiring harness.
Malfunction in ignition coil.
Malfunction in ECU.
Malfunction in a component of ignition cut-off circuit system.

If the bike turns over but doesn't start I would check the kill switch and from there the wiring harness to the coils.

I’m happy to assist further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/walker_61ab9022a1a05bd2

Error 80 means "Malfunctions related to the electric control or images have been detected".
Try to switch camera off AND remove battery from camera. If it does not help - bring camera to service center, malfunction causing error 80 can be serious.

Error Code #36 IS faulty ignition > "Open cicuit detected in the primary lead of ignition coil #4."
Probable causes are:
-open or short cicuit in wiring harness.
-malfunction in ignition coil.
-malfunction in ecu
-malfunction in component of ignition cut-off circuit system.
Hope this helps
