I hooked up a horn relay system to pass inspection and it sounds sick and now my starter button quit working.The bike would not start at all till I took the the inline fuse out of the holder for the horn. My push start is still not working but the bike runs fine.Could this be coincidental. Do you think maybe my contacts are dirty in the push starter? The bike will start by jumping the soliniod with a screwdriver. Please help if have any ideas!!

Simple way to see, is to check the voltage @ the relay when depressing the starter button.
If voltage is present it's your starter relay (on my 1100 its a small yellow/green wire with a dark green stripe sodlered to the relay)
If it's not, then it could be your button corroded, or blown fuse...
Good Luck,

horn relay and push start
I ran an inline fused wire from the battery to the horn relay button and then from the button to the horn. Then grounded the other connection on the horn to the bike itself.After that my push start wouldnt work thats why Im wondering if the push start thing was is just coincidental.My bike is at the shop getting a new front tire.They didnt have the right size so it had to be ordered.I have an 83gs650L.The fuses are all fine!Comment

I dont know what happend but all is well.The bike shop where im having my tire fixed got the horn and starter working for 115bucks which I thought was cheap.I will by a manual for it so I will know what Im doing next time.Which manual would cover the 83gs650L. On ebay there is 2 manuls to choose fromComment
