im having a little trouble. eveytime i turn my key on to start the bike it pops the fan fuse everytime and wont start.. And also the fuel pump aint kicking on when you turn the key to on. usually it makes the little whistlin noise but it aint. Can anyone help me with this and why its popping the fuse everytime?

 

you have a break in a connection, or a ground. some wire is bare somewhere cuasing it to ground out and pop. if your fuel pump isn't coming on you either have a bad connection on that, bad tip over sensor, or a bad relay. does the bike still crank over? if so then check those things.

 

cranks over like a champ.. no go though.. i'll go through and check all that out and let you know what i come across.. thanks

 

yep, fuel pump isn't kicking on. sounds like a tip over sensor or a loose connection on the fuel pump. (or a relay)

 

unplug the fan replace ant blown fuses ....if it starts then you know where to look

 

awesome. thanks old man roger

 

Ok roger. so i disconnected the fan and still popped the fuse. im gonna try blinders method right now.. let me know what else you think is causing this

 

sorry with out being there it hard to diagnose electrical problems...

 

start looking for a ground out wire

 

ok so i tried everything and i have no clue what the deal is and its pissing me off..its still blowing fuses and fuel pump aint turning on.. What the F**k!!!

 

you got 1 or more wires grounding out- re check the harness. look for any spot that looks like it could have been pinched or smushed. Or if you got a lot of d.i.y. conectors check for a loose one or missing elec. tape

 

start unpluging every thing then replace the fuse and turn on the key and then plug in one thing at a time when the fuse blows you will know where to start checking.............

 

Ok.. Well i think i might have a bad fuel pump not sure though.. I can get the bike started now.. But after riding it for bout 20 min it pops the fuse and the fuel pump wont kick on.. So then i replace the fuse and have to tap on the fuel pump a few times for it to turn over and make the winding noise.. And also when i disconnect the fuel pump connection the fuse wont pop.. but sometimes when it is connected it pops.. A fuel pump works off pressure to right?? cause i never had no problems till i dented my tank in i might be losing pressure also for it to pop the fuse.. not sure though.. Can someone give me some advise on what i should do from here?? Thanks

 

with most electric motors when they start to go bad you can tap on them and they will run till they get to hot ,so that sounds exactly like what is happening to you ......

the fact that it happened after you dented your tank i think is a complete fluke

 

Awesome.. Thats what i like to hear.. Welli better start looking for a pump

 

Ok so i did a code check today and got a C41- Fuel pump control system.. Im narrowing down the problem but, my fuel fuse is still popping and only when im in a wheelie, i can cruise all day long with no problem.. but as soon as i pick it up and go bout a blocks distance the fuse blows.. It makes no sense whatsoever.. Fuel pump relay clicks just fine when turning the key on, Tip over sensor is good.. Please post with some helpful advice.. Thanks
