Lightbulb 05 electrical issues...engine cranks but doesn't fire

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I rode my motorcycle last week and everything ran perfectly. I went to ride it the next day and noticed no headlights, taillight, or blinkers (to be fair, I'm not sure if these stopped working during my ride the previous day as it was still daylight at the time). The horn still works along with the dash gauges, fuel pump DOES prime, and the bike cranks over in the usual manner but doesn't fire (killswitch is in run position). I've checked the fuses in the fuse box on the left side of the bike, and the starter relay fuse under the seat, all were normal. Just wondering where my search should go from here?

Thank you very much in advance!

Did you check the fuses electrically, or just by looking at them? Most likely this is a fuse issue as you suspected.

Can you provide some history on the bike? Any recent work or modifications to the bike?

Yes! I'd be trillionaire if I had penny for every time I heard, "Fuse looks OK!". But actually didn't conduct electricity at all!



Although, headlights, taillight, and blinkers are all on different fuses. Seems unlikely that you blew 3 fuses simultaneously... very odd. Should measure them all anyway.

I just pulled them and visually inspected them to see if they were blown or now. I feel like its the wiring somewhere as multiple systems have been impacted

No recent work. The guy before me did a rear fender eliminator and replaced both the front and rear signals. I bought the bike in 07 and had no electrical (or what seems to be electrical) issues until now

Thanks for the tip! I honestly didn't know this could even happen! (look fine and actually be broken)

Also don't forget to measure 20a FI fuse. It's separate from everything else and powers entire EFI system; ECU, injectors, ignition-coils, all sensors, etc. It's comes off battery in parallel with starter-solenoid and main 30a fuse.
