Hey this is a long shot, but idk who else to ask. Couple months ago I was riding my 09 ninja 650, and it died. All lights and display were on fine, but wouldn't let me try and start or anything. Thought kickstand kill, but that was fine. Sat for a while, by the time I got back to it the battery was dead and bad. New battery, it cranks, but fuel pump doesn't prime. Tested the fuel pump and can hotwire it, but no clue why it won't come on. Any ideas?
Sorry about the late reply, I don't check my messages as often since YT decided to put the screws to myself and many others..
What all have you done thus far other than the replacement battery and quick hotwire of pump? Have you checked the fuses near the tank? Near the solenoid near the battery? Are there any saved fuel injection codes? Do you hear the throttle bodies click when you turn the key to on? If you hotwire the fuel pump and go to start it, does it actually start and run?
I have a 2016 Ninja 1000 that has had a hard time starting lately. I have to hit the starter button like 50 times before it fires and sometimes it fires but the engine wont turn over. It seems to be getting worse with time. It's been a long time since I changed the air filter but other than that the bike is well taken care of. Just had a valve adjustment and spark plugs changed. Any ideas?
I'd check base timing. How far out was the valves from spec?
@@TheWizechatmgr I'm not sure I lost the paper. What do you mean by base timing?
@@spoonman73 It's the relationship between both cams and the crankshaft...
I have a 1991 Suzuki VX800 that won’t start. Multimeter reads 12.0V lights/horn seem to be functioning normally but when I press the start button nothing happens. Any tips?
12v is typically a low battery
If the battery is fully charged check the solenoid fuse.
Check the start button
I have a 2011 triumph daytona 675, it used to start right up just by pushing the button, now it keeps trying to turn over and doesnt start unless i open throttle while pushing start button, once finally started it pretty much starts every time after. Just have issues on first start- any ideas?
Thanks
Sounds like the idle may be set too low. Sorry about the late response, been on my rear for a bit.
Clean you throttle bodies and run and injection clean through it.
I have a 2008 Kawasaki 1000 xr I changed the stator or mechanic did in okc and worst news he called me told me bike was blown and motor needed replaced and shortly asked if he can buy the bike for cheap but I’m iffy bout it
If the motor were truly blown he would have felt that pulling it in to service it and never started to work on the stator before calling you. I think I'd ask him to put it back together and bring it somewhere else for a 2nd opinion.
I have a 2016 hyosung gt650 r when I turn the key over I get power but my electric start doesn't work and neither does jump starting with cables. I can pop start it but it keeps stalling out can you give me some ideas?
I'm not familiar with that particular bike but I'm wondering... Is this EFI or carbureted?
@Brandon Brandon check your spark plugs and spark plug wires. Had this issue on a hyosung 250. Can't remember the year. We did the spark plug wires, spark plugs, cleaned the injectors and ran seafoam in it. Ran great after. Hope this helps. Sorry I didn't respond 11 months ago.
My fzr 600 06 when start I'm getting a electric sound from under the tank bike won't start any help
What do you mean by it won't start?
Hey
I have a versys 650 2017
2 days now im pressing to the started , I'm hearing trying but does not get ahead , I have to use it some times , 2 - 3 press
Where do you believe is the prob;
Thanks for your time
How many miles? When was the last time the spark plugs and air filter were changed? Is the coolant temp sensor good? Is it only on cold start?
@@TheWizechatmgr is 1400 miles now I did the service, 2 times today was hot when I was about to press start , and one was cold , but is not doing it all the time.
Checked some days back and the battery was good , I had some hard start before but had big distance each other
@@TheWizechatmgr no prob with temp sensors 🤷
The quality of the petrol can make this prob?
If I remove it and change it with a different gas station
It could...
I have a 2008 Yamaha R6 it won’t start won’t even turn over but if I put jumper cables on the starter relay it fires right up
Bad battery, bad ground, bad positive cable or bad solenoid would be my first guesses...
I have a 2006 ninja 636 and my 30a fuse keeps blowing, cant find a wire diagram anywhere
Try doing a search for the service manual for that year, it should have it in it. I'm sure it's different than the 2012 I have.
Try this... www.zx6r.com/threads/2005-2006-kawasaki-zx-6r-service-manual.12594/
Do you have video testing the starter?
No, but you can do it one of two ways to bypass the safety's while in neutral. You can bypass at the starter solenoid or you can take a jumper cable from a car and go direct from the positive of the battery to the positive lug on the back of the starter.
@@TheWizechatmgr I try this
I've not experience this issue? So now I road to the store ,came out to leave I turned it over. It cranked and I let up. Turned key off. Turned key back on went to crank. Nothing power lights indicators no start
Check the fuses under the tank's forward shroud. Also check the two fuses on the relay that engages the starter.

I need help guys I have my Kawasaki 2010 Ninja 250 and I have power but it won't start and my neutral gear light doesn't show up what is my issue
Sounds like you need to check your neutral safety switch and verify it is connected and functioning correctly both mechanically and electrically. You could also just hold the clutch in while starting I believe, as I think there is a clutch safety switch that can override that.
I got same bike doesn’t Wonna fire injectors any ideas ?
So starter turns her over, but no gas to injectors? Check in-tank fuel pump 's resistance across the terminals. It's a 4 pin connection on this bike, 2 for fuel level float, and 2 for the pump. Shouldn't be open unless the pump is bad. Other possibility is the ECU isn't happy. Do you have a check engine light on?
Me either. Not really a fan of the starter solenoid block
I have a kawasaki ER-5 2006 and it stopped starting the other day, energy goes to the solenoid but doesnt come out, it works if I put a screwdriver in between them, but the bike wont start, just swapped out the solenoid and same problem.
Could be a bad starter. Check the positive to the starter, verify it has ground as well. I'd pull it off and bench test it.
@@royberry7585 it was the kickstand's killswitch, i dont know how but i hitwired it so it doesnt work anymore and the bike did start up fine.
I have a 95 Kawasaki Vulcan 500 cranks but don’t start has fuel has spark any idea lol
Assuming you have good compression, that leaves timing...
I need help I have a 09 yamaha r1 wont start but it turns over
Getting fuel & spark?
Probably a kinked fuel line under the tank. Very common on these. 😊
I have a ninja 300. I changed relay and all the fuses and even the battery but still no power. The only thing that gets turned on is the head light and signal light. Not sure what’s wrong with it. Can anyone help?
Which year? Fuel injected? Sorry about the late reply, just got back from vacation.
@@TheWizechatmgr no worries. It’s 2014
Swapped a bad battery for a new one. Mine started up find... 2 weeks later now it wont start at all. Battery was trst as good.. now what
Check stator and voltage regulator.
Rectifier?
I have power to the starter solenoid full charge on battery but the bike won't turn over from the starter button. The starter solenoid seems fine and I've tested it, is the problem upstream of the solenoid what can I check?
Check that you get voltage to starter with button pressed
Hi, no power to the button when pressing on it.
Check safeties
@@TheWizechatmgr OK checked clutch and side stand switch all seems fine what else could there be?
@@madeinjapan3485 any power to the starter button? I'm guessing there could be a fuse involved. Any mice/rodents involved?
I’ve got a 02 sv650 currently with no spark. Everything else works gets fuel just no spark
That using coil on plug or inductive ignition?
Figured it out appreciate the help tho
Awesome, what was it? Safety interlock?
@@TheWizechatmgr guy I got it from had no oil in it which caused the low oil sensor to cut spark. And then he had my fuel lines hooked up wrong out those in the correct place after doing a oil change and it fired right up
@@jameseaden5900 good stuff =)
What if you have no power to it or the rest of the bike and the battery has no power
Replace defective battery?
My ninja 250 won't start either , can Kickstart it , tried buying a new battery ... still won't start , any ideas ?
Which year? Have you verified gas fumes from exhaust and spark?
@@TheWizechatmgr 2008 , it’s fuel injected , the bike primes when I turn the key , but nothing happens when I press the start button
Does the starter engage at all?
@@TheWizechatmgr nope , nothing , when I turn the key the engine primes , but when I press the button absolutely nothing
Do you get power to the starter when the button is pressed?
And a video how to get to the spark plug?
You need to remove the tank and airbox to do that. If you don't have the service manual I'd suggest getting it. The tank is held on by 3 bolts, plus two holding the top shroud to it that you must remove. When you go to remove the tank be careful as you need to remove a fuel line from it, 2 drain/vac hoses, and an electrical connection for pump power and fuel tank sensor. When you go to remove the airbox it's a pain because you need to snake the harness over the top of the airbox cover. The airbox is secured at the bottom with a single clamp that clamps both sides onto the throttle bodies. I have a video on how to get to the airbox, not sure I made one for it's removal. Make sure to stuff socks in the throttle bodies while you have the airbox open so you don't drop anything down them.
Probably good information on the video but I can't hear a word
Thank you for the info, I'll see if I can salvage the audio and re-upload it. Been spending far too much time at home...
You'll be glad to know this video should be getting some attention this week =) New video is uploading and will be available at czcams.com/video/_X-d5G61TJg/video.html
You still help people with bike issues?
As I can, absolutely. Been crazy between the divorce and court issues, but I'm still alive =)
@@TheWizechatmgr sorry to hear that.
I been through that hell 2 years ago
@@TheWizechatmgr I got a ninja 650 2014 5k miles.
It was sitting for 3 months,
Added new fuel, charged the battery, added water remover to the fual tank
The engine cranks but won't start
@@unforkyours3lf730 you sure you're getting fuel pressure? Are you sure you're getting spark? I like to remove a plug and lay it atop the cylinder head while hooked to the coil. Should get a nice bright spark. I have no recommendations on how to determine fuel pressure other than to put your nose to the exhaust after cranking for a bit and see if you smell gas fumes.
@@TheWizechatmgr I can smell Gas from the end of the fuel pipe
Can hardly hear you
Sorry bro. Need to rework a bunch of these videos but just haven't done so yet. Thanks for pointing it out though, it helps me know where to target the time. Keep the shiny side up!
Can't hear what you are saying
I checked the video. It's a little low but there.
You dont really know what your doing huh? Lol
Mean people suck....
Mujhe iski selfie Le Le ki hai
Yeah, but watching them attempt to troll is a sport in itself. If for some reason they think you or I give a frick, they'd be wrong =)
Speak up
No. =P
