Hey there, new to the forum! I have an 02 Dyna Glide that’s getting power but won’t turn on. Sometimes when I’m riding the bike, it will just stop running but I’ll still have power. Wondering how I could solve this from home, trying to get her back into riding mode. Thanks!!

My '00 WG would just cut off while riding. Still had juice but would shut down, then after a couple of minutes would start back up again. Turns out the crank position sensor was bad, found out when realized that the engine light blinking when starting the bike was actually telling me something, that the bike threw a code. Used a jumper to read the code through the method outlined in the shop manual, replaced the CKP and problem solved. YMMV, of course.

+1 to this
I've had a similar problem and it was the crank sensor both times. Its an easy fix but its extremely inconvenient if you're out on the road and not just firing it up at the house.

Start with the basics. Make sure your battery is fully charged and tests OK. Check the cables to the battery terminals and make sure they are tight and clean. Then check the ground cable from the battery to the frame to ensure it's also clean and tight.
