turn over problem.

[effingidiot]

My 1994 vmax is back together now,i put everything in a new frame.I conected the battery,turned on the ignition i thought great i got lights.I pressed the start button i just wanted to see if it turned over,the bike turned over but not a full rotation then stopped.Now when i press the starter button,the lights just go out.Like a flat battry,but it aint flat.What should i check first.cheers.

What is the voltage of the battery with the key and headlight on?

Starter solenoid? Try jumping the bike with a car. If it spins over well, I'd think battery, like Traumahawk is suggesting.

The headlight don't come on might be the bulb,the battery was 12.7 when i charged it up a couple of weeks ago.That's the first thing i wil check tomorrow,along with the solinoid.The switches was all siezed up,i used wd40 on em so they need checking.

Main fuse under the seat?

Sorry.I can't check yet,ignition fuse blows when i turn it on.

Is this a melted brown wire problem? I can't remember if that's a symptom.

No melted wires.

Could be you have a pinched wire if fuse blows as described.

Found out what's blowing the fuse,theres a black box with a white 3 pin plug and a tube coming down.It sits below the guage cluster held on by two 10 mm bolts,i dont know what it is yet i aint looked.Thats the problem.

It's the full power boost sensor,ther don't look like much can go wrong with it.

I believe that is the vacuum advance for the ignition curve.

Can you post a pic of it? Ignition units like ignitech use something similar as well.

I can't post pictures av tried,all i get is security token missing.It's the one just below the guage cluster with a white 3pin plug and a small hose coming off it.

The fuse doesent blow when i unplug it,is it that or do i have to dig deeper.If it is that,i think i will be getting a used on as money is very tight.
