fzr 400 starting problems

Fzr 400 rr main relay ticking:
Symptoms i turn the key the main relay starts clicking and thers nothing from the start button, exup or fuel pump ive since charged the battery and replaced the relay and still the same

 

is there an alarm/immobiliser on it?

 

Had this issue on a honda bros, i removed the solonoid, replaced it and it started again.

 

Not an alarm prob maybe soloniod how can i test that

 

Solonoid will sometimes click when you hit the starter if its not functioning properly.This is a bit primative but it works, connect the positive and negative terminals of the solonoid with a screwdriver for a second, if she tries to turn over your starter is fine, but your solonoid is shot. Thats how i figured mine out.

 

There both positive

 

Well they should be happy as fucking larry then shouldnt they.


Used them as laymans terms. We all know that the solonoid has a battery and starter motor side :thumbsup:

 

If we all know it, why are some of us getting it wrong. Touchy

 

Im on my period. Thats my defense and im sticking to it!

 

could be something to do with all the quality wiring on it

 

The wiring is shit on it believe me thats tidy compared to how it was wen i got it i put a screwdiver to both and terminal on the solenoid but nothing happend take it its time to order a new one

 

if the relay is clicking away then it isn't making the circuit that it should do, start from the relay wiring and go from there. two wires will power it, may be switched earth etc, the other two are for the circuit it makes.

if you shorted the two terminals on the starter solenoid and nothing happened then there is no power there.

did you put a new battery on it or used one?

 

If you put a screwdriver between the two terminals, you should at minimum get sparks to indicate there is power going through as bloke said, if there were no sparks, the battery would definitely be my first port of call.

 

Theres sparks but nothing else happens its wierd because i was on the three sisters last month and it was fine went to start it up tge other day cause some lad wanted to buy it and nothing reckon shes trying to tell me something ive heard of owners being attached the there bike but not the other way round lol

 

It there are sparks then i'd make sure the battery has enough charge, and if so, i'd assume that your starter has gone :thumbsup: just work your way from the battery and test everything, something will be out, process of elimination.

 

Cheers lads
