Bike's dead

I know this has been covered but I can't find it for the life of me!

My 996 will not start, the battery if fine, fuel pump and lights come, the kill switch is in the off position but there is absolutly nothing when you hit the start button.

Any help please

Cheers
Dave

When you say the kill switch is in the off position?

dave996 · 06-Nov-2006, 14:32

Sorry, it's in the run position.

Start solenoid?? Is it clicking. If not sounds suspect

No click no nothing.

Bike was running fine on Thursday night, left it over the weekend then nothing.

Do you know where the solenoid is ?? could be worth a look see. Check the wires for tightness and corrosion. If ok check for voltage at the solenoid. and report back

By The battery, Find the Thick wire coming from starter motor, Follow it back. it will end at the solenoid,
