Author Message   Its_a_buell Posted on Wednesday, April 06, 2011 - 10:45 pm:        First of all, I searched through the archives and couldnt find what I am looking for so here goes. I've got an 03 XB9S that has completely died on me. It happened on a casual ride through town and it seemed like someone flipped the kill switch. Now when I switch the ignition on...nothing. No fuel pump, no head light, only the neutral light comes on and the tach&speedo needles flipping over. All the fuses in the box are good, the battery tested good, and i can't find any obvious shorts or disconnected wires. I pulled apart the kill switch and it looks to be functioning properly. Could someone point me in a good direction to troubleshoot. thanks   Danylos Posted on Thursday, April 07, 2011 - 12:34 am:        I had something similar happen last year. (thought I was going to be stuck 100mi from home for the night) Even though your fuses may all be good they may not be making good contact inside the fuse box. Try both cleaning the fuse contact points and pulling the fuses in and out several times to improve the connection. My bike came back to life after pulling and replacing each fuse several times. Good luck!   Midknyte Posted on Thursday, April 07, 2011 - 01:27 am:        > I've got an 03 XB9S kickstand sensor switch?   Swuly Posted on Thursday, April 07, 2011 - 02:23 am:        Iīve got an 06 Uly and exactly the same thing happened to me! I proved to be the fuel pump that had been completely clogged and just died. Donīt know if 03 XB9S has got the bank angle sensor, but if so, that might also be worth checking out. Good luck!   Natexlh1000 Posted on Thursday, April 07, 2011 - 06:53 am:        Measure the voltage at the battery while the key is on. My X1 died like that and it was the battery. With no load, the battery measured 12.5V and when connected to a charger, it said it was fully charged. BUT when any load was applied, the battery might as well have been a chunk of wood! Voltage dropped to nothing.   Brumbear Posted on Friday, April 08, 2011 - 08:39 pm:        key switch (Message edited by brumbear on April 08, 2011)   New12r Posted on Saturday, April 09, 2011 - 10:19 pm:        Are all the RELAYS clicking. My 04 12R killed relays(the gray ones) left and right.   Vtpeg Posted on Sunday, April 10, 2011 - 09:30 am:        Connector by the drive pulley? Can't recall the name, but seems to be regular gremlin.   Its_a_buell Posted on Sunday, April 10, 2011 - 10:09 pm:        thanks for all the input, i'll update as soon as i have some results.   Tap_tap Posted on Wednesday, April 13, 2011 - 02:23 am:        ECM was tested on another bike and worked properly on it. Still my engine light does not come nor will the fuel pump turn on when I turn the key switch. Any other ideas ?   Tap_tap Posted on Wednesday, May 04, 2011 - 02:42 pm:        It was the ignition relay switch
