Tech Tips Online July 22, 2002 No Start Condition We have had reports of a no start condition on several motorcycles with Delphi fuel injection. The problem occurs one time and does not return, so is difficult to diagnose. When the condition occurs, a P1010 code - missing password, is normally set. There have been a few reports of a P1009 code - incorrect password also. We are still investigating the cause but it appears the turn signal module did not get a complete message from the ecm at ignition ON so the engine starts and stalls or cranks but will not start. If you receive a call from a customer with this condition, or have one in your service department, try removing the ecm and security fuses, wait a few seconds and reinstall the fuses. We have found this "reboots" the turn signal module and the motorcycle will then start from that point on. The historic codes will remain for 50 starts or until cleared.
If the bike is completely dead like the ignition switch does nothing and you pulled the switch lever out of it's hole, the issue is more than likely you assembled the switch lever wrong. Youtube may be your friend here.. I don't remember the exact fix but you might have to make a tool to set the switch up correctly for assembly.
