Help!
I accidently left something on, on my bike and killed the battery. I tried to start it a few times after waiting but not enough power
Someone came to boost me, but it sounded like it was trying to start (normal power) but it wouldnt actually turn over to start. after a few tries it did, but it was all clunky feeling the bike. . so i turned it off, and tried to start it again, but battery was dead, so we tried to boost it again. but the fuel pump "buzz" noise when i turn the iginition to ON doesn't happen anymore
anyone know what might have happened? did i blow my fuel pump trying to boost it? or is it a fuse/relay? i get full power to everything on the bike except the fuel pump prime now.
oh ya, i never knew this since i never had to boost my bike (im a new rider) and the car was on when i boosted it. so did i fry my fuel pump or a fuse that starts it? ive also heard theres an anti theft thing on the F4is that prevent fuel pump starting.
how can i trouble shoot my problem?

Which fuse/relay powers the pump and how can I check it (location)?

Did you try push starting it? I've encountered that similar problem with different bikes
(08 CBR 600rr, 03 zx6r 636), many times. It's nothing that a push start can't fix. If not, just pull the battery out and charge it. It doesn't take long for a full charge.
Also, if you get pushed and drop it in first, and get it running.. ride it for a bit so the alternator/stator charges your battery up.

You fried something most likely. You hit a 10 amp electrical system with 80-150 amps. Check all your fuses first. Van, there is an antitheft on the f4i. It is the pink wire on the ignition switch. It is a zener diode and it takes 12 volts from the battery and then feeds like 7or 8 volts back to the ecu. The reason is a standard hotwire of feeding 12 volts to the system wont allow the bike to start because the ecu wont be getting the lower voltage on the pink wire. I would be worried mostly about the ecu being damaged aswell as the regulater/rectifier and possibly stator.

checked all the fuses. everything shows fine. battery seems fine. the FI light is showing me 14 blinks which is no 3 injector fault or shorted out.
so is it possible i shorted out #3 injector from the boost? hence why it started once but was all clunky ?
also, if #3 injector is shorted out, would that prevent fuel pump from priming?

how do i hot wire the pump? and how do i know if the ECU is bad from boosting it?
also, is the fuel pump powered by the relay on the side of the rear cowl? if so, is there a way to check if its busted without a meter? i wont be able to get one until tomorrow so any tricks i can try to check?
