I disconnected my battery to do some welding and i cant seem to get it working again. Ive had several people come over to take a look and no one can figure out why it wont start. No lights will come on ive tried hooking it up other ways to see if it would work but no luck. its fully charged and everything if someone could tell me where the wires go that would be great. i have the 2 balck caped wires going to the silinoid. i have the long skiny red one no cap going to the negative . and i have the only red caped wire going to the positive.. or let me know if i may have blown a fuse or something. thanks!

 

check the fuses, did you unhook the pos. or neg. when you were welding on the bike.?

 

yea i unhooked everything before i started welding hooked it all back up and it just wouldnt go

 

to me it seems that the main circuit that gives power to the bike has a problem. did you weld on main switch? is it possible that the welding hot parts have fallen into a wire and burned the insulator causing it to ground?
when you remove the battery (any of the poles) and put it back with the main switch on, do you see some sparks?

Hey thanks for the reply.. It turns out the winch wasnt fully connected and the circut has to run through the winch and back again to power the battery. But thanks for the suggestions really appreciate it!
