Default No switch power

I have a 2015 super low 883 that will not turn on.
Ran fine Saturday rode about 100 miles no issues.
I have load tested battery and checked fuses all are good.

Checked power going to start/run switch and have 12.6v at red wire.

How do I go about condemning the start run switch without a diagnostic computer?

There aren't any relays, All is taken care of by the BCM. I'll admit that I don't know crap about the new keyless systems but does the alarm set or reset. If it don't, I'd recheck all the connections and fuses and start suspecting the BCM. Does the trip reset on the speedo do anything? On keyed bike you can dump codes, not sure about keyless bikes.

The trip works and if I unplug the y axis controller and plug it back in the horn and the left signal will work for a short time.
While they are working right signal still does not work but pump will cycle and cel will come on. Still no start though.

Sounds like only way to get answers is taking to dealer or throwing parts at it......really hate paying someone else to repair my bikes.

I would say you are close to figuring that the right hand button controller / switch. You could try flipping the switch on and off a couple times then see if it works but at that point, I really can't be sure. While a do know a little about different network type systems and how they function, I really don't have much experience with troubleshooting this one.

Hopefully some here can help.

Good luck.

my library only has up to 2013, will see if i can find a 2015.
one ? though and maybe mr. max can answer: do you think the system will be similar to the 2015 bt?
i did notice that there has been several issues with the right controller with atleast a couple needing answers. did track down some but i too would have to search the forum. if i remember correctly, the controller had blown diodes.
