Starter problem
Posted: Thu Mar 29, 2012 4:15 pm
Hi Guys, here we go again! lol finally got the bike back together after finally getting the paint work sorted. Cleaned the tank out and added fresh fuel. Hit the button and up she fired
had no problems with it running or starting for a couple of days. Then the missus comes to start it and you guessed it...Nothing! the battery is fully charged the starter relay is clicking but no starter motor action! i put a meter across the two terminals (the pos from the battery and lead to the starter) and even with the ignition turned off i get a reading of 9v, surely there shouldnt be any voltage when the ignitions turned off? after reading a few posts on here it seemed it may have been the starter relay. So i've rplaced it with a new one which sounds much stronger when you hit the starter button, but still no joy and still 9v across the terminals when switched off. Any one got any ideas what could be up or what to check as i need to get the thing on the road.
cheers
