Symptoms are this: parked up after ride back from Cadwell, didn't touch it until this evening. Starter dead. Fuel system pressurises, all light on ok, looks like the Run switch is off (but it's not). Found the 20A fuse blown.
"Borrowed" a fuse from my car. Started fine. Had the foresight to nick another "spare" from the car to take with me this evening. Came out the pub. Dead again - same fuse blown.
How wierd is that? Lucky I took the spare or I'd have been stranded. Anyone seen this before? I did have the rubber boot off the starter terminal this afternoon to check the terminal nut and waterproof the boot. Can't imagine how I'd have caused any grief though and the 20A should not be on that side of the circuit anyway? |
Sounds like you have got a short in your wiring/ connectors.... thats going OC (open circuit) when the voltage drops... But i could be wrong
