Hello Everyone thanks for letting me into the club I live in RIsing Sun Maryland I have a 1998 Triumph Speed Triple t509 it has the 885cc engine
I’ve had this bike a little over a year now she was in pretty bad shape I’ve got her looking good everything cleaned new or replaced she would always crank and fuel pumps would prime found out that my injectors were bad actually found 3 brand new injectors now she won’t start! My lights horn and turn signals will all come on but she won’t crank or fuel pump won’t prime and no lights on the dash!!! I have a new starter solenoid new battery all safety switches are good clutch kickstand and neutral all good think it might be kill switch any ideas or input ,advice would really be helpful!!! Driving me nuts
Sounds like it could be the kill switch or the main power relay if you’re not getting oil and neutral lights.
Thanks yea I actually tested the relay and I actually ordered a new one just in case but the kill switch is hard to figure out I have 12volts to the starter solenoid but nothing no 12volts at the trigger wire that attaches to the start button? Should there be????
Have you got a wiring diagram Sean? If not, let me know and I can send you one from the Triumph manual via email.
Sean98509 You seem to have done I pretty good job there. And I am sure you have something very simple going on there. Do talk to Ron he has just finished Scarlet almost the same bike and his memory will be fresh. But do recheck all those safety switches again make sure they are working correctly as they should especially that clutch switch. Regards Joe.
thanks everyone for the welcome and for the help Ron I did check relay 4 and yes it does have power and those pictures are just like mine I sent u pics of my alarm plug but I do have the manual and the wiring diagram I’m not electrician but with my father and brothers help we can work thru it I have done a lot of testing but EVERYTHING KEEPS CHECKING OUT!!! Every time I say that’s gotta be it but it’s nit I do think it’s something simple myself lately I’ve bin leaning towards maybe it’s the computer? I’m sure it has a lot of faults I’m sure maybe needs a reset or clear it out??? But somethings going on and I haven’t bin able to pinpoint it yet tomorrow all 3 new relays come in so I will pick them up and then see I’ll get back to everyone tomorrow thanks
