Default Help! No power
Hi guys. So I blew a rear brake line on my 89 heritage softail. I changed it out. Hit the ignition on the dash and no power. I checked the battery it's good. I checked the load at the starter. Same as battery. I took the dash cover off and checked the post on the ignition. No power! Is there a relay or fuse or breaker that could of went bad? I was riding the bike 4 hours before this!

Get a service manual so you know where all of your fuses/relays are located. Sorry, its the best advise I can give.

Thanks for the help. Here it ended up being the volt. Regulator went bad and fried the circuit breaker. It was a double whammy.
