Hello all. So, just a couple days ago, I took possession of an absolute MINT 2001 1100XX. At 13000 miles, this bike looks like it came out of a time capsule. I bought it for a steal with one caveat- the bike will not start. It cranks as strong as it should, but will not start. In the 2 days I've had it, here's what I've discovered and what I've tried-
The pump does not prime while inline, however if disconnected from its connector and jumped with the battery, it will.
All fuses check out ok, and all relays activate when removed and tested.
The pump connector receives its momentary 12v when engaging the Start/Stop Switch(as I believe it should).
I've disassembled the Start/Stop Switch Assembly and cleaned/dielectric greased all contacts.
No FI lights displaying at testing.
Sooo, with 2 days of Blackbird research, I believe I can conclude that the ECU and connectivity are good given that 12v is sent up to the pump when it should. I think I can also conclude that the pump is good, since jumping directly to a battery brings it to life. I unfortunately lack the knowledge and experience with this bike to tell what else could prevent initial priming while everything is in circuit. Bank sensor, perhaps? Something still amiss within the tank? May be worth noting, but I'm told this bike started last Fall before putting away for the Winter. The previous owner kept the bike in the house with very minimal fuel, so possibly something within the fuel pump assembly in the tank is gummed up? Anyway, thanks ahead for any thoughts suggestions?
