all electrical out

[achesley43@ymail.com]

 I had this problem one time. It turned out to be a bad loose fuse connection in the fuse holder. The way I finally found the culprit was in having my seat just sitting on the bike and not bolted, I was able to ease it off the seat off and not disturb anything. Then start touching stuff with my finger and bingo, when I touched the fuse holder, everything came on again. Before, by the time I got the side panels off and the seat unbolted, it shook things up as to let the system correct it's self before I could get in there. I replaced both fuse set ups with a water proof , blade system.  I still just have the seat sitting there without the bolts holding it. A few velcro strips holds it on , but, it's also kind pinned down by the top box just behind it.

Dave <><><><><><><> <><><><><><>>   Dave,   How about sharing the year of the bike?  Gen I and Gen II electrics are different.   I'll guess you have a Gen I since you said both fuses under the seat are good and you were able to bump start the bike.   My first question is how do you know they are good?  Did you test with a test light or multimeter for power on both sides of the fuses?   I'll suggest you don't have to empty the tank to remove it.  It is a bit heavier when full but should still be manageable.   I'd probably take a good look at connections for the ignition switch if I was working on this issue.  But I think I'd really suspect the 20 amp main fuse since that feeds all the electrics and nothing worked.   Best, Jeff Saline The Beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota 75 R90/6, 03 KLR650 . . . . . ____________________________________________________________ [b]Do THIS before eating carbs (every time)[/b] 1 EASY tip to increase fat-burning, lower blood sugar & decrease fat storage info.fixyourbloodsugar.com
