Bike won't start please help
 
hi
I have an issue with my 2000 xlh1200 while riding on a rough rd the positive battery terminal vibrated out bike stopped dead. Reconnected alarm kept going off I disconnected battery and reconnected it alarm now stopped. Bike powers up but won't start or even wind over. I have been on the net and tryed to disarm the imobilizer tryed all the info there regarding turning ignition off n on hitting blinker switches etc dose nothing at all only turns blinkers on and off or hazard lights to flashnothing happens to the display at all. Have also left battery disconnected overnight as one post suggested so can't access pin change pin disarm imobilizer and it won't wind over. It's Xmas day here in Australia so no dealerships open for advice. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers..

Try changing the battery in the remote. Also clean the battery terminals and connections real good. Snug the Bat cables up real tight. Look for any lose connections and clean them up also.

Another thing - hold the button on the for for up to a minute - see it it re-syncs

thank you.. but I have tryed all of that already except for the new battery as I can't get one over the Xmas holidays but it's the first thing I'll try when I can

fob button - sorry typo. Sometimes you have to physically hold the alarm button on the fob to re-sync it.
