    Mine did th same. Perfect for weeks. Then it would and then it wouldn't start. Garage dug under relay housing box and found corroded connection under there. Cut out bad and re soldered. Works perfect now. 2 hrs max labour.

    For me anything in line with th ignition system like alarms etc are always prone as th years go bye.... Remove and re solder is a good plan..

    The Triumph dealer is 2 hours drive away... Thousand oaks ca..i guess the only way is to get another key from dealer...get it cut and drive there to pair the key with imobilizer...depends on how much$$...got text back from dealer $58 for blank key..didnt tell me how much to pair....i did ask :rolleyes:

    I had a weird no start issue today on the Scrambler 1200. Called in at a local dealer for an unrelated issue. Came to start the bike, usual ign on, clutch in and hit the start button and the engine turned, probably 1/2 a turn, stopped and the entire dash went out. Turned the ign off, tried again and it started but I noticed the time & date and the trip meters had been reset. This could be an issue with a dodgy battery or a maybe a faulty starter? I stopped a couple of times on the way home and it restarted no problem.
    When I got home I checked the charging voltage and good at 14.4V. I tried a couple of starts and on the first one it just started but the battery dropped to just under 7V and on the second start it dropped to just under 10V.
    The bike is just over 1yr old (March 13th '24). I don't know what make the battery is or if the warranty even covers it.
    The bike had been stood for around 10days and I've noticed it never turns over as quick as the Kawasaki or the Husaberg but I just put it down to how the Triumph twins are. I think a proper battery test is the next step.
