Details:
-2012 Road Glide w/47K miles +/-
-Plenty of mods that shouldn't be a factor
-Brand new battery

Haven't had a single problem in the 4 1/2 years that I've owned it, and out of the blue it won't start. Turns over, and I can hear the fuel pump engage, but won't start.

The battery had been on a slow decline, so since it was on my list to replace I go ahead and do it thinking that maybe the amps aren't quite enough to turn it over hard/fast enough to fire it up (yep...I'm challenged when it comes to electronics!). No go. Brand new battery and it still doesn't start, only now the fuel pump isn't engaging. Dead silence when I hit the "run" button.

Any suggestions on my starting point to narrow down the possible problem is much appreciated!

 

Tried pulling any trouble codes? Any recent work done to it? Security system working properly?

 

Sitting here now looking for the steps in the manual to pull codes. Never had to do it, so don't know how.

No recent work done to it, and security system working.

 

Check the fuel pump and main fuses. If there is power to the pump the first thing the dealer would check is fuel pressure which you probably don't have the equipment to do at home. Try disconnecting the fuel line quick connect at the tank and reconnect to bleed off some pressure and try the pump again. I've had fuel problems twice. Mine would start though but wouldn't rev. First time was a warped fuel pump lid, the second time was a plugged filter. I know now that if I have trouble again the first thing I'm going to do is replace the filter.

 

Thank You cncmike For This Useful Post

 

Turned out to be a system relay fuse. A $6 part and good to go again.

 

Glad you got her up and running. Thanks for posting the cure. It may help someone else out in the future.

 

Glad it was an easy fix, and thanks because it reminded me to add spare fuses to my tool kit. That could have happened in the middle of nowhere.
