Motorcycle Repair: 1500 goldwing se, starter solenoid, starter button


Question
turned key on, no headlights/tail lights, no neutral light, will not start. puch starter button, no sound. I do have blinkers, clock, radio, horn.  put new battery in it, same problem. I have checked the all fuses that I can find, including main fuse. could this be the starter button or the ignition switch? I don't know what else to check.

Answer
there is a chance your ignition switch could be bad, however its not real likely on a newer wing as yours. I would check with a relay 1st. Then I would make sure your kickstand is UP, the bike is in nuetral, and the kill switch is in the run position... I know it sounds basic, but ive overlooked it myself... Also, find your starter solenoid, this is whaere you may or may not find ANOTHER main fuse which sounds more likely to be the case here...

Hope this helps!
