F1 Warning and error

[coman37]

If it turns over then you have eliminated all the electrical overrides such as faulty side stand switch, false neutral, faulty engine kill switch. If it were any of these or others not thought of then the bike would not turn over.
Do try with a new fully charged battery or jump start from a running car(very difficult to get jump leads attached)

Good luck

Won't turn over with the kill switch on

My mistake, I thought it would.

Hi Glenn, can you check to see if you have a feed to your fuel pump?

Hi All

Yes the kill switch is of, that was one  of the first things i checked and i don't think i have home start, as i have cover through my insurance which was included, but i will check.

About the fuel pump priming, i don't know what i am listening for?

The battery has run down due to trying to start it. I have put it back on charge and getting the battery checked at a garage.

I don't know if it was turning over as i think it was just the starter motor whiring round.

You should hear the engine actually turning over, like Daisy says put your flat palm over the end of the exhaust whilst pressing the start button, if the engine is turning over you will feel the pressure coming out of the exhaust onto your palm.

I still think that your battery may be knackered which would not be unusual after a winter lay off

Hi All

I have had my battery checked at a garage and is fine.

Just in case i am not wiring it up properly.

There is only 1 positive lead to attach to the positive and 2 leads attached to the negative.

I usually put all cables back into their positions with the screw  loosely fitted, so that i don't forget and  I can't see any other wires dangling that should be connected.

Could it be the spark plugs as i had them fitted 2 years ago and if so it is a difficult job getting to them, so i am led to believe. When talking to Autorama they said that the plugs should be fine when booking in for a service, before all this started.

I guess you spoke to Brian at Autorama, if so the advice he gave you will be reliable

[Lonewolf]

The plugs on a GTR are designed to last for huge miles, I doubt that will be the cause.

Hi Knightraider, carry out the checks Daisy mentioned first, that's a good starting point mate.

Hi All

Thank you for your help and patience in this.

I have reconnected the battery as the garage said it was fine and still no joy.

From your advice, i have compression out of my exhaust, all electrics work including the screen raiser, tried putting it in gear and starting the bike just tries moving forward a little. Tried swishing the petrol round and leaving the fuel cap open. So that tells me the battery is connected properly.

Could it be a fuse? if so which one do i look at? as i can only think of this last option.

When talking to Brian at Autorama before they closed down due to the coronovirus he said he didn't know after talking to the mechanic.

It has got be something simple as you can guess i am at my wits end in trying to solve it with all your help and advice.

So please any more ideas.

If anybody lives in the Halifax, West Yorkshire area maybe you can come and have a look.

Thanks

Glen

Hi Glenn, its definitely turning over then and the battery is fine.
Could you hear a noise from the fuel pump when you first turn on the ignition?
