whats up guys, i bought an 88softail on saturday i was so stoked but after 10 min all power was lost and it hasnt started since. ive had the worst 24 hours ever. we have tried to get it going since yesterday avo but she still wont go. its something in the electronic ignition. Are there any good auto elecs down frankston way i could take it to? any help would be great

Welcome

Welcome , hope you get it going , previous owner any help ?

Does it have fuel? Is the tap on? Try flicking the kill switch a few times. Does it have a switch on kick stand to stop it if the stand is down. Check that. If all else fails drink more beer and take it to the shop.

Yeah tried everything I could.
New relay switch new, new breakers checked all the wiring.
I called the guy I got it from and it's doin his head in as well.
All I could do was have a few frothys and look at it. It's goin into the shop on Wednesday. Not what you want when you buy a bike. But the guy I got it from is a top bloke and said he will throw me some cash back when it's goin.

Does it have spark??

I know these are stupid questions, but sometimes it the obvious that gets missed

Would be lookin at that coil pack. Doesn't look original. Could try disconnecting the battery for a few minutes. Sometimes faults with electronics will reset themselves with no power supply

Good luck with it. Nice lookin ride. Will bet my 2 bucks on the rectifier

Welcome, nice ride, hope you get it sorted
