Deemoiii Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Hi all, hoping someone can point me in the right direction, Bike has new battery and fuses are OK, getting 12v after fuses but no lights or dash or relay click. I'm a bit stuck on where to go next, is there a way of testing relays? Is bad starter relay going to give these simptoms? Any advice is welcomed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator drewpy Posted March 6 Moderator Share Posted March 6 try the earth first. clean the area. undo the block connectors and spray with contact cleaner and a bit of acf or equivalent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deemoiii Posted March 16 Author Share Posted March 16 Iwe been playing with my multi meter and traced where I have V and where not. So doesn't get to starter relay, ignitor box, start switch or headlights but dash has some V without showing signs of life. Just to add, I had dash and crank but once I trailer't it home I connected battery with jumper leeds hear a click and nothing, dead. I thought I did a fuse but that doesn't seem to be the case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE0 Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 You need a circuit diagram to trace the circuit. Have you tried the R1 Community? They have a circuit diagram here. https://www.r1-forum.com/threads/annotated-wiring-diagram.642907/ I'd consider joining them also, somebody there might help shed some light on it as it may be a common problem with your bike.

Moderator Snakebite68 Posted March 16 Moderator Share Posted March 16 So this is a 1999 R1? There's a big ass fuse on either side of the starter assay. Try those first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deemoiii Posted March 24 Author Share Posted March 24 Well so far I have found a dodgy rusty/burned plug to ignition, fixed that but now when I hit starter all lights and dash go out then come back a bit later, battery showing 10.5 when starter is hit so not too low but it could still be the battery?

Moderator drewpy Posted March 25 Moderator Share Posted March 25 if battery is good, sounds like the starter is stalled or earthing out bringing down the voltage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
