i pulled the bike in last saturday for a few hours. And went to leave again and it wont turn over. All the lights work the spedo does its thing it is showing a fault code so i took it in. after a week they determined it wasent the ehc i hear so much about, not battery,before i took it in i went threw the wiring everything i could read here. The dealer is telling me there not sure. Any suggestions i'm picking it up tommorow.

Gonna need more than that!!!

Does it turn over?
Do you hear a clicking of the selenoid?
If turning over do you have spark at the plugs?
Does it have gas?

And about a 100 more questions. Need more info. Do you have any fault lits on the EHC?

something simple---- been trying to start the bike for the last couple weeks after it has not been started for about 8 months. went through several failed cycles so today i pulled the plugs. they were a little damp with gas so i dried them off with a paper towel and put them back in. after several tries, cranked right up, old gas and all with a three year old battery that has been on a tender. think simple first.

It wont try to start,no qlicking either. the trigger wire has 5volts going to it but dosen't change when i hit the start button. I can jump the starter over but i still dont get gas. I do get a fault code when i try and start it. setting on the bike looking down i have a solid yellow light and a flashing green light across from the yellow and a solid red light when i hit the start button its the 6th light from the back it goes off when i hit the start button again.

Memory not working right now!!! :whoop: But is the 07 Bulldog EFI? If so do you here the pump come on when you hit the start button.

By the way, your wiring system is a low-voltage system so you will only see 5 volts.

Look for a file in the Tech section on Trouble Shooting that is put out by BDM.

You're only getting 5 volts on the small red wire hooked to your starter??? When you hit the start button?
