Electric Start and the horn will not work, battery flat?
Hi
My electric start will not work and I also noticed that the horn will not work as well. They were fine when I started my last ride. The battery is flat so where do I start, the wiring diagrams don't seem to be much help so I hope you guys will? Thanks Roger

How old is the battery?? If it's more than 4-5 years you may want to think about a replacement. It also helps to keep it on a trickle charger.

The battery is about 8 months old and I have checked the fuses and they are okay?

What kind if battery? I've had some last a summer. But they like continual use. Need to use them to keep them charged or on a trickle charger. In the winter I just move my charger around to different machines to keep the battery's good. My BMW battery wouldn't start the bike, buts it's been sitting for a month or so without riding due to moving.

Do not start the car when doing this. Just off the battery itself.

My Oem battery croaked without any warning after just a few months. I bought a Shorai in late 2011 or so. Later I bought the Shorai charger and when the bike is in the garage I always hook up the charger. The Shorai charger comes with an extension that connects to the battery and you can tuck it under seat without taking the seat off. I have never had a problem with the Shorai.
