Default Outty 800 Electrical problem

After a short ride, I stopped at a friends house. Went to start back up, and when I turned on the key there was nothing. Towed it home, next day it started fine. Couple weeks later, turned the key on, and nothing. No electrical power at all. Messed around with it for about an hour, and it finally powered up and started right away. I let it run for about a half hour and shut it off and tried to restart it and I had nothing. Dealer hasn't been able to figure it out either. Any suggestions???

Its maybe very simple. When your kill button is on the OFF position, you have nothing (same as the key OFF) So turn the key ON and the red button too.

Good day![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

90% of the time it's the battery connections.

Yes, i checked both the battery connections and the kill switch. Like I said, the dealer can't figure it out either.

Turn the key ON and play with every wire connectors you see.(Under the dashboard, etc)
Open the fuse cover and push on every fuses... It looks like a bad contact.

Found out it was a faulty diode. Just remember this if you ever hear of this problem again. Thanks for the help.
