Hello and good morning all.
This will be a bit lengthy.
Bike: 2015 Iron 883
Last month i was out ridding and all of a sudden my bike shut down, no lights,
nothing. I was able to pull it off into a driveway shut the key off, turn the key on
and restart it and got it home. Once home i went over everything and all seemed normal.
I continued to ride problem free for a few weeks until 2 weeks ago.
I was on my way home from work, when the battery cover popped open and i pulled
into a shopping plaza to put it back in place. I put it in neutral and kind off popped it back into place using a bit of force.
when i did this the bike shut down again, and this time was not able to get it restarted. lucky a coworker of mine lives close by
and we were able to get it back to my place in his truck.
This is were it gets strange. Once in the garage, i went over everything. Fuses, connection, ground, had the battery tested looked at my wiring.
Now about every 24 hours i can go out and turn the ignition on, it will light up like its ok, go to start and it will do 2 revolutions and shut back down no lights, nothing.
and not start almost like its in some sort of protect mode. At this point i think its a faulty BAS, BCM, ECM or ? I'm pretty lost on this.

 

Sounds like a battery wiring problem Check all of your wires clean everything up.

 

Remove battery and charge it.

Take battery to auto parts store and have it load tested, they will do this for free.

Remove battery cables, clean terminals and the surfaces they contact.

Let us know the results.

 

Welcome. Take a moment to walk into the HDF lounge, pour yourself a cup of coffee, and introduce yerself.
