    Re: starter solenoid problem..

    i dont really understand the question, but.....if that 30A main fuse is out your bike should not be running?!!that is the main fuse in the bike, and you should have no power at all if it is out. this might sound silly, but check under the rubber cover of the switch box. that is a slot for the spare fuse only, not for the active one. the active fuse is the top one behind the connector pins as seen on the photo. the fuse just push into the two female connectors. push it in and and out a few times just to make sure the connection is good.
    take some picks of yours and maybe we can see what you mean?
    cheers

    I don't understand the question either...but you need a fuse my friend (30 amp) or if a short circuit should happen you will have a huge smoke show causing much damage to the wiring and components. See diagram of the
    starter relay and main fuse.

    To GSPD750 & desertjoe;

    Thanx for the advice n diagram...
    FYI, my starter working already....
    I made a mistake by connecting the 30A female connector to both side B & M.. when running, my bike had no power as mentioned by desertjoe...

    After connecting both female connector to B, my bike running as usual...

    The only problem I can think of is if the circuit needs more power it will keep blowing the fuse.
    YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE
