Default No power

Ok ride bike to work got off ride to buddies house to install high flow breather. After installed went to crank bike and turned ignition on no power no lights no blinkers nothing. We raised bike gas tank up during install process to take bolts out of a holster that mounted to throttle body. Anyway don't know why I have no power normally when bike recognizes key the light stops blinking and is solid than goes off and bike powers up fuel pump headlight dash lights excetra. None of that is happening now. Check battery good fuses good power to fuses good. But when ignition is switched to acc or on I get nothing.

For starters, if you are going to start a new thread about a problem it is best to include bike specs, especially if you are new and nobody knows what you have.
(Why expect someone willing to help you do a search for the info, unless you are a f****n troll, and I am assuming you are not.)

I don’t understand why it was necessary to raise the tank, but since you did I would start there.

I don’t know RK wiring around the tank, but I am guessing you inadvertently disconnected something when doing so. (Unlike your FKHR, my FLHTCU has all the instrumentation in the faring, so I don’t know exactly what connections are there.)

Also check the connector behind the AC to make sure you didn’t dislodge it.

And make sure if you disconnected the battery or the main fuse you reinstalled!
