[Rick_916]

I was out riding, came home and my 916 just stalled and wont start. It sounds like it is starting but there is no fuel getting to the motor.
How can I know if the fuel pump is not working ?
Shouldnt it make a sound when you turn the key on ??
Any ideas ????
Thanks

You should get a short whirr when you turn the ign on.

Same as Andy

if the switch for run or off is at run, it should whirr until the fuel pressure is up to the right pressure.

Dodgy switch????
