slugworth1987 Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 once your wired to a car's batt if still no joy the Kwaks HISS equivalent is suspect or the earth on the ignition key system... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Is it just the Start Circuit? I.e, does your Horn and lights work..What do you Ride?I had an issue with a bandit 600, aftyer riding in the wet, one of the sfatey circuits was at fault, so operate the side stand safety, and if it has one the clutch safety and the kill switch, then give it a go..If you don't have horn or lights working then its not the start circuit and is something else..PS if you can get at the starter relay and cross it with a screwdriver, and the bike starts then its in the wiring before the relay, Starter Fuse..

techno Posted December 19, 2008 Author Share Posted December 19, 2008 I noticed when I re-connected the battery the needles flicked accross the dials, no theres no lights or anything.Walney its a 2002 zx6r Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I don't wan't to insult you, but the battery is connected the right way?otherwise i would check all your fuses, as it is interferring with all circuits, and not just the starter one, which could have been an immobilser.. If you have a haynes book of lies, then i would look at the wiring diagram for anything obvious... Have you had the bike apart or had work done porior to this probelm..?

slugworth1987 Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 i know you have visually inspected the fuse's but have you electricly checked them? using a multi meter set to the Diode/beep setting place the connectors acorss the terminals and if it beeps its good lol diode looks like this (|<-) as a symbol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 sounds like you have a loose connection usually the multi plugs behind the clocks and in the side of fairings are the culprit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choppedminx Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 sounds like you have a loose connection usually the multi plugs behind the clocks and in the side of fairings are the culprit I agree, I have found several 'not quite good enough' connections in the multiplugs under fairing. A good spray of WD40, and a few 'in and outs' (ooh err) with the plugs seem to fix it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techno Posted January 1, 2009 Author Share Posted January 1, 2009 Am thinking your probably right..gonna have another tinker when its warmer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 if you put the ignition on and just wobble wires and watch for the lights coming on and off thats the easiest way to check ps if it helps i have this problem on mine at the minute too but i know what wires it is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
