Got caught in a hell of a storm. Bike got wet as it has before. Ran strong and made it home no prob. 2 days later I pushed it out of the garage and washed it. Went to start it to pull it back in and nothing. The lights and sound system came on the fuel pump works when I hit the on button but when I hit the start button the only thing I hear is the starter relay (I think...sounds like the same 1 click you hear with the rear brake but under the seat) Never turns over. Battery read 11.9v in the bike and 12.3 out. I charged it and put it back in the bike at 12.8 but once everything was hooked up in drained it to 12.3 (I think). Still no start.

Test the starter relay for power coming out to the starter when the switch is depressed.

 

Thanks Doc 1.

 

Are&nbsp\\;the starter relay and brake light relay the same ? Can I just swap to see if the relay is the issue ?

 

I would think they would be the same. A 12volt relay should be a 12volt relay. Should have contacts for the relay coil, and then output contacts...common, normally open, and normally closed.
Pull the relay out, turn it over and check the contacts.

 

Yes I believe so

 

Thanks again Doc...unfortunately I can't check it till next Tues. Thanks.

 

Been a while since I was able to post. Turns out the two allen head bolts that hold the starter to the primary were loose which was causing it to lose ground. Been up and running for couple of weeks.

 

I'm having a similar problem. I get power all the way to the starter relay, but not to the solenoid side. I have already changed the relay but no change. I'll check the bolts for tight tonight.
I have a wide glide with almost 50k on it... time to tighten EVERYTHING!
