Bindason Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Hi Guys, I'm back with another fault Thanks for all your help getting me back up and running in the past, I hope you can get me out of trouble AGAIN! I look the bike out at the weekend and when i put it back in the garage I noticed a tiny drip of coolant coming out of the bike, I found it to be coming from the water pump gasket, it was quite late on Saturday afternoon so knowing nowhere would be open to get a new gasket and wanting it back on the road for Sunday , i phoned my local Autopart place and got a sheet of gasket paper. I knocked up a new gasket and filled and bleed the system, everything went fine and i left it tick over for 20 min's to make sure there was no further leaks or any sign of overheating. Everything went great so took it for a quick spin down the road and when i came back I went to put it on its side stand and it cut out on me. Now my side stand cut out switch has never worked in the past so i raised the stand and it started again. Tried putting the stand down again but this time it didn't cut out,I tried a few more times and it didnt cut out either, so I leaned the bike about 30 degrees to the left with the stand still up and it cut out??? I had a quick look at the connections for all the electrics, (which on my bike are tucked up out the way just behind my YPVS servo motor)and as i touched the connectors it cut out. This time it won't start again! I cleaned all the connectors (as they were a bit green/blue on the terminals) But I am lost as to what I can do know. Tonight I think I will just cut off the connectors and make new connectors for them all as they don't look the best. Has anyone ever had a similar fault to this, and could point me in the right direction as what to do next? I will add more info tonight as I had to rush out on Saturday and didn't get anymore time to look at it then i had to spend the day with the misses yesterday so didn't get a chance to look at it. I know this is quite school boy posting before I have really looked at it my self, I don't even know if there is a spark!!!! But I thought I would post now just in case someone on here goes "I had that same problem it was........." Thanks in advance for your help Bindason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
