Hello, I currently snaked my control wires through my bars. Once done I put bike back together and tried to start it. The bike will crank but won't turn over. I checked the plugs and I am getting no fire (used a spark tester).
I'm scratching my head as to what could have caused it, everything is insulated and nothing should be grounding to the frame. I remember I accidentally plugged in the Brown//White wire (right turn signal) into the Black/White wire (starter switch:engine stop run) and flipped cranked the bike (See screenshot of wiring schematic). Could this have caused ignition coil issues or worse, ECM issues?
When key is turned on all electronics come on, when I flip to run the fuel pump comes on, when I hit start the bike cranks. Just no fire.
Yes mistakes were made but any help would be greatly appreciated.
I was getting sparks on a tester while testing the wire for the front cylinder. No fuses were blown but I replaced all, I unplugged and replugged in security system (saw somewhere online it may help), and put in fresh plugs, bike started right up. I'm unsure what the issue was, hoping just a blip. Bike is running fine
