Author Message   Ndrew Posted on Tuesday, July 26, 2011 - 07:04 pm:        I was driving to work today, i killed the bike at a light(new bike). when i went to restart it, the electrical system was completely dead. no lights, nothing. i checked the battery and its fine, 12.7v. all the fuses are good. any ideas? a friend thought it might be the ignition switch.   Swampy Posted on Tuesday, July 26, 2011 - 07:31 pm:        You want to check the battery connections, then the grounds. Turn the key on and check the fuses for power.   Ndrew Posted on Tuesday, July 26, 2011 - 07:45 pm:        im getting power at the fuses. i can hear a relay clicking slowly. its the relay to the left of the rear shock under the seat   Ndrew Posted on Tuesday, July 26, 2011 - 08:18 pm:        fixed it! It was a dirty battery terminal...even for a newb i should have caught that first
