Won't start
My bike won't start. A few weeks ago I put in a new stereo and drained the battery. I but the tender on for a day and it fired right up.
Today I go to start and nothing. The lights are on and bright but when I turn the kill switch to run I don't hear the ecu firing up and of course nothing on the start button. Not the slightest. Any suggestions? |
More info.
I did change the grips since then. How do I test the wires to the kill switch?? Thanks |
Key fob battery? Two years ago my bike stranded me. I went over everything that I could think of. I called a friend and he told me to try a battery in the fob. That fixed it! I change it every spring now. I hope your issue is that simple.

Yea I tried Using both fobs
no flashing security lights. |
I traced it to a blown 15 a fuse and got the fuel pump fired up then swapped the brake relay with ignition relay and it started .
What would cause the fuse and relay to blow? |

Hard to say why the fuse blew.....I would probably carry a spare.....just in case it happens again....and needless to say it would probably be a place not as convenient as your garage
|
My problem still exists
I bought a new relay today and When I turn the main switch to ignition I hear it pop. I don't even get to the run to start switch. anymore suggestions |
id start with the stereo you replaced
|
Maybe a pinched wire inside one of the handlebar switch housings from when you changed the grips? Also, if you're not really careful, you can break the front brake switch when putting the grip housing back together. Possible cause of a short.
