Melatv 792 Posted May 29, 2021 Ok that's good -- now go to the relay connector and place a jumper wire from the R/Y and R/W wire and see if the bike will shift Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bossdaddy 209 Posted May 29, 2021 I saw a small spark when I installed the jumper, it will not shift. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melatv 792 Posted May 29, 2021 (edited) Did you have the jumper in place when you tried to shift? Edited May 29, 2021 by Melatv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melatv 792 Posted May 30, 2021 OK -- unplug the shift motor and do that test again with the jumper and check to see if you have 12VDC on the connector to the shift motor -- key on and push the shift buttons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bossdaddy 209 Posted May 30, 2021 I will be testing the harness side of the connector, right ? Both probes in the connector or black on ground? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melatv 792 Posted May 30, 2021 (edited) Hi: both probes in connector -- harness side Edited May 30, 2021 by Melatv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bossdaddy 209 Posted May 31, 2021 I finally got a chance to do another check. Jumper installed, key on, both probes in connector, pushed buttons and got no readings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melatv 792 Posted May 31, 2021 (edited) Wish I had your bike in front of me ----- Do this unplug the Engine relay (4 wires on it) test the harness side for 12VDC on the R/W and Green wire on the connector Edited May 31, 2021 by Melatv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bossdaddy 209 Posted May 31, 2021 I know your frustrations, your dealing with somebody that don't know crap about the electronics of the bike. The engine relay is the the one I had the jumper on? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bossdaddy 209 Posted May 31, 2021 Yes, I did get 12 vdc on the r/w and g connectors Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melatv 792 Posted May 31, 2021 Is your bike in Neutral when doing these tests? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melatv 792 Posted June 1, 2021 Also when you check for 12VDC on the shift motor was the relay plugged in? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bossdaddy 209 Posted June 1, 2021 (edited) Yes. neutral Edited June 1, 2021 by Bossdaddy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bossdaddy 209 Posted June 1, 2021 No, I had a jumper installed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melatv 792 Posted June 1, 2021 (edited) Ok -- Now put the jumper back in the relay connector -- unplug the ECM -- and check for 12VDC on the R/Y wire of the 5 pin connector for ECM - black meter test lead on neg. of battery when testing. If you don't have 12VDC on the R/Y wire of the connector -- check for continuity from the R/Y wire on that connector to the R/Y wire on the relay connector.
