Need some tech help 02 Fatboy
|
On my last ride before I put her up in December, I parked the bike to run
into a store. Came out, ent to start the bike as usual but got only ticking
from the starter area.
The battery seemed to have plenty of juice but just to be sure I put another
one in. Same thing.
Got it into the garage, put a trickle charger on the battery. A few days
later, I tried it again, Nothing.
Took the battery out checked the ground, paced a charger directly on the
battery line. Got loud ticking from the starter area.
Tried to click the ignition switch off but that had no impact.
I'm thinking that either:
Ignition switch is bad (AND OR)
Solenoid is bad (AND OR)
Starter is bad.
In order to pull the starter, I have to drop the tank so I'd rather not
start just replacing parts.
This is a FI bike.
Any help would be appreciated. I've never had her into a shop except for
State Inspection so I'd like to keep that streak up.

Jump across the starter wires to see if it starts. I don't think it is your
switch if it sends the information to the solenoid to make it click. If it
starts by jumping the starter then I'd replace the solenoid.
