When you mentioned this, I thought I follow the click a bit more closely. Sure enough, there now was only one click when depressing the button and the click clearly came from the starter relay. So I ordered one for $9 from ebay and replaced it. Oh what a joy when the bike started right up.
It...
Thank you, I think I will start with removing, disassembling and cleaning the starter's internals like you did. Are there any instructions anywhere as to how do this that you know of ?
thanks
Thank you !
It did not help though.
As soon as I turn the key, the orange light stays on and the display has the error code12
When I press the start button it clicks and the orange light starts blinking !
Fully charged battery
Showed 12.99 volts
Hooked up battery to bike
Turned key
Orange light came on, display shows fault 12
Turned start switch on, heard fuel pump humming
Pressed start switch, orange light starting blinking
Voltage went down to 12.80
Where do I start ?
The battery is good, the bike does not even start. I can hear the fuel pump come on when I turn on the switch but when I hit the start button the orange light comes on and it goes : click click click !
So I took the battery to Autozone and had it tested. They tested it and told me that it registers as a "good" battery.
Any chance that it is a good battery but still not good enough for a start ?
I did not run my bike for a while but charged the battery every once in a while.
Is there a way...
So, when I press on the starter, it's going click click click.
Battery is about 2 years old showing 12.9 volt
There is an error code 12 which I believe is the crankshaft position error which can also be caused by not enough voltage to the ECU.
Upon reading post after post it looks like it could...
I think the guys at Autozone might be wrong on the load test ?
Here is what's happening now after charging the battery:
Key off and about 12.5 Volt
Turn key and drops to 10V, display is now working but no sign of fuel pump coming on.
New battery ?
So, my FZ6 does not start. I had the battery load tested at the local Auto Zone and they told me that the battery was good. When I turn the key nothing happens and the clock and mileage display turn off.
Where to start ? Get a new battery to see if it is the battery after all ? It is about 2...
