I'm giving up on the SERT

Couldn't get the F'n program to work, so screw it.

The bike still don't work. I turn the key, and get nothing. No lights, no power, absolutly nothing.

The bike ran fine untill I shut her off in the driveway. Opened the garage door, went to fire up the bike to ride her in. When I turned the key, I got nothing. Could the ignition switch be bad?

I pulled the ignition switch, but that ain't telling me much.

Could it be a relay?, or that little F'n computer thing that's on the newer bikes.

It couldn't be the battery. I'm not even getting any power with it hooked to the charger.

Check your run switch. If you put the 3 wires together on the Ign switch, the bike should start. If it don't start, that eliminates everything up to that point, including the key switch. then work from there. Maybe it's the crank sensor like what happened to my bike

Did you check the main fuse??? Sometimes you need to start simple.

What about the kickstand being down, I heard those bikes don't crank with it down...


Other than what Geno said about crossing the three wires, I got nothing, yet.
You have already checked for corrosion at the battery terminals, I would assume. Did ya check the connections at the brain box, maybe they could have come loose?

OK, I put the ignition back together, and everything else except for the battery and seat. Hooket the jumper cables off of the bagger to the Dyna. Turn signal lights came on as soon as I made a conection, but they didn't blink. Turned the key to the on possition, and all the idiot lights came on. Turned run switch to "RUN" possition, but the engine light didn't go on and the fuel pump didn't engage either.

Geno called me this morning, and told me it could be the battery since I'm getting no power.
