Hello, I just installed a wire plus kit on my 04 big dog and it won't start. :bang::bang:I'm getting spark but, it will not start. I am also getting fuel. Is the coil bad? Maybe not enough spark?

Don't you have to get a key switch or something else when you buy the wire plus for that year, or is it just for '05 and up? I'm sure Jake knows.

no it wouldn't crank or do anything. I did have problems with it turning off after 7 minutes of running. If I let it sit for 10 min. after it would fire and run fine until it sat for a few days.

Sounds like a fuel issue to me if it ran before. You have plenty of gas in the tank?
