015 Breakout battery went dead,have recharged battery,all lights on (including engine management light nothing happens when press start.
Have so far:-
Tried start boost from battery charger...
Checked & removed fuses....
Disconnected battery completley...
Spoke with HD dealer said bring it in...
Put in Gear tried rocking....
Note can here (think it is) fuel pump prime when turn on....
Hoping its a pull clucth ,press indicator twice whilst siciking finger in left ear.....
any clues???

 

Slow down , does it turn over when you hit start no , try again with the clutch in side stand up K !.
If not does that model have to have A the clutch in ?
or the side stand up , if you get all the lights but no turning over of the engine something somewhere is stopping it.
It should be simple to work out , can you short the starter from the solenoid ?

 

Swap battery for a new one. I have had two batteries fail and everything works but not enough cranking power to get it running.

(swap a Li-ion battery in save some weight and space....)

So once you do what is suggested in the second post in this thread and it still won't start, it could be you have a dead cell in the battery.

On my YZF750, lights would come on, horn would work, but the darn bike would not start. I thought it might be a main fuse or something. I even checked the voltage and it was good. I spent the better half of a day going over everything until I took the battery out of one of my other bikes, hooked it up and sure enough it fired up.

In 30 years of riding and working on bikes never came across this situation where lights came on, horn worked but it wouldn't start...

But again, make sure you aren't forgetting something simple....

 

Yea the elimination process.
We know it's electrical and it's most likely the battery but let's find out step by step.
Or buy a new battery straight away to find out after it's a shorted switch, screwed relay or simply a loose terminal.
Or a zillion other things it could be .

 

thanks guys.. Be 1
st to admit am not a mechanic,but if using boost start on battery charger & nothing turns over does that not mean problem not battery?Was assuming was some immobiliser code to reset?

 

Would it not go all "disco on your ***" if it was a security thing ?
I'd say now it could be a relay , that's why I said short it at the solenoid or from battery to solenoid go live and see if it turns.

 

I tried the same with a boost, but with the damaged battery it just wouldn't keep going...

Did you meter the battery...what does it read (volts)?

 

Meter reading 12.85....Tried putting in pni code found right indicator switch not working or right indicator light so now assume start button not working?Any more fuses anywhere?...cheers
