To make a very long story short, my bike will not start and I had to be towed home from Ohio Bike Week today. The bike died three times while riding, the first two I got her fired back up and down the road, the third time, not so lucky

Upon first restart, the fuel pump could not be heard running after flipping run switch. I got down and checked pump fuse and it was good. The bike restarted after I switched the pump fuse with another fuse. I then proceeded to ride another 10 miles to where I was going. Bike was parked and started up fine after about 30 minutes. I rode not even 5 miles down the rode and the bike just died sitting in traffic. I again got down and checked the fuse and it was still good. I swapped it again, like before, and the bike re-fired. Drove another 10 miles heading home and the damn thing just quit while riding. Coasted to the side of the rode and tried swapping fuses again and this time the pump did nothing upon hitting the run switch. I swapped the fuses again and the pump would prime up but the bike would not fire. Now (after a few tries) the pump cannot be heard running at all. I had to finish my journey on the bed of a trailer.

Bike has gas, and a good battery. It turns over strong, just wont catch...

I have not had a chance to check much yet because I had to come to work. I have searched and found some info on a fuel pump tech article and also water damage to the fuse/relay block. Can anyone help me out and suggest what else to check when I get home tomorrow?

 

sorry to hear of this.
no help here tho

 

Ok..so I got out the test light, meter, and the service manual today. I have absolutely no power to the fuel pump fuse terminal. All other fuses are powered up. There is continuity between the pump connector and the fuse block. The relays are both still good, I assume, since they both work when swapped positions. I have to figure out why the power is not getting up to the fuel pump fuse. Any help? Will the fuse blocks themselves go bad? There was very little corrosion around the terminals as I keep them pretty well greased up...

 

I got her fixed this morning!!! Two new relays did the trick.
