Sorry if this is in the wrong section, wasn't sure if it should go in mods or general. I am interested in changing out the stock headlight bulbs to HID's. I have some Plug and Play kits in my truck that were literally just plug and play. Are these the same for the bikes too? I seen a few forum...
Anyone on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Looking for some other folks to start riding with. If anyone is near here, let me know and maybe we can meet up. :thumbup:
I have nothing on it unfortunately, I bought it on Craigslist, had to jump through titling hoops and everything but it's all finally sorted, and didn't hit the wallet too bad. It was owned by one older guy since 2004, then two younger guys sold and bought it within 6 months without ever...
As soon as I get back home, I will cut it open and post some pictures! We'll see what the hell happened. I'm just glad it was a 40$ part and not the $600 fuel pump.
GOOD NEWS GUYS, THE BIKE LIVES!!!!!!!!!
Changed out the large relay under the left rear pod and it primed and fired right up. Thank you guys for all of the input and testing procedures and information. I feel like I will be here often, this is a great community.
Yes, the neutral light does light on the dash. So that being said, are you guys suggesting that it could be that starter relay stopping the pump from kicking on, or should I start troubleshooting something else? Just wondering what my next step should be because I'm out of ideas on my own...
Yes during the priming cycle it is at 7V, I held the meter and had someone turn the key on while I watched. Sorry I was a little unclear with that, I will reword it.
So I cycled the ignition with the stands both up and the clutch pulled in and in neutral. No luck, the starter spins fast but the pump does not prime at the initial key turn. So to recap this is what has been tested and what is going on:
- Tested voltage at Fuel Pump Plug (green plug)...
Ok, so I hooked 12V straight to the pump briefly and it spooled up properly with no issues. I already checked the fuse in the block as one of my first steps and the fuse is good, I even threw another 10amp in for good measure. I am headed back outside now to do the safety check recommended. I...
I unplugged from the pump while testing the voltage to make sure 12v was getting to the pump. So since it wasn't actually plugged into the pump when I tested, could it be the relay not sending a full 12v? I will still try to apply straight power to the pump this afternoon when my son goes home...
OK, so..small update, I have my 1 year old son with me this weekend so troubleshooting is limited, but I did have a chance to check the voltage at the pump, I know it is supposed to be 12v but I am getting a reading of ~7v. The sending unit plug gets 12v. I believe what I read in the forum is...
