Stu Posted May 16, 2008 Posted May 16, 2008 Not if its broken down again lol its not broken down its just delayed a little more info will help what curcuit is the fuse on ? is it the starter relay fuse ? when is it popping ? all the time or just when the starter is hit ?Stu Quote
Guest Posted May 16, 2008 Posted May 16, 2008 HiI drove to town and before I stopped it just went dead. No power, nothing no lights. I check the front fuse box but everything seems ok. I took of the seat and check where the battery main wire goes to. Their are two fuses and both are 30amp fuses. I changed it and as I started it It immediatly popped again. I swapped it and drove home as I stopped It blew again.Hope this helpsCorrie Quote
Stu Posted May 16, 2008 Posted May 16, 2008 none of the battery connections or connections round the fyse are shorting are they ?Stu Quote
Guest Posted May 16, 2008 Posted May 16, 2008 No not that I can see !Maybe I should add that I have washed the bike this morning but drove 140km before problem started Quote
Stu Posted May 16, 2008 Posted May 16, 2008 i bet you have water in somewhere it is the main fuse you are popping thats why it is totally dead once it goes you got any maintanence spray in the garage ? start spraying all electrical connectors starting with the main fuse,ignition and light switch it sounds like you have water somewhere sometimes mine wont turn over once its bad a bath Quote
Guest Posted May 16, 2008 Posted May 16, 2008 ThanksI will clear all connections tommorow and use penetration spray to try to sort it out. If I dont come right I will be back for more. Thanks again, appreciated.Corrie Quote
Stu Posted May 16, 2008 Posted May 16, 2008 oh and go to shop and buy loads more fuses just incase good luck Quote
Philk Posted May 16, 2008 Posted May 16, 2008 oh and go to shop and buy loads more fuses just incase good luck Go through all the wiring before you put another fuse in!!! Check alarm circuits and starter circuits. Try to recall what extra circuits were on when the fuse blew. Were your headlights on? If not don't worry. have you been riding in rain? If you have where can the rain get to?Check the rectifier, look for loose connections and any signs of burning. Quote

Guest Posted May 18, 2008 Posted May 18, 2008 Hi AllI found the problem. Everytime I start the bike and turn tHE STEERING TO THE LEFT, the fuse goes. I took of the faring off and found a red wire that have exposed some copper. and if I turn the steering the wire touches the body.Thank you all for the input and problem solving.Corrie Quote
Stu Posted May 18, 2008 Posted May 18, 2008 i had a problem like thatit was behind the right hand upper fairing the main wiring harness to the headlights and clocks it was rubbing on the bracket for the fairing totolly forgot about that glad you sorted it Quote
