Default Help: Stuck at work with a dead SV650.

Hi,

Im stuck at work, my bike will not start. The sidelights work and so do the indicators.

I turned the key and the dash worked for a second and now it is dead, the injectors dont make a noise and the headlight and brake lights dont work.

Any clues?

I don't have tools or spare fuses.

Going to try get a lift home for tools and such.

Battery totally flat?

Blown main fuse or ignition fuse?

Good luck and hope that you get it fixed. Where are you based, if you are close to me I may be able to help with a lift

I can keep pressing down shift which seems odd. Dash is dead no display at all.

first port of call is the three cut outs, clutch/gear and kill switch, then battery voltage, then main relay and fuses.

But on the info given beyond that is currently a shot in the dark.

Cheers Mark.

If dash is completely dead than it won't be kill switch or sidestand/clutch interlock. Either the battery is dead, one of the battery or solenoid connections is corroded or loose, or the main fuse is blown/corroded etc, or the ignition switch is knackered or one of the connectors between ignition switch and main relay is dead.

turn ignition on and wiggle the wires that come out of the right hand side of the frame see what happens.
