2009 V-ROD MUSCLE WILL NOT START, TURN SIGNALS FLASH BACK AND FORTH 3 TIMES

SOURCE: turn signals wont flash but somtimes,bulbs good

If they both come on, front and rear, but won't flash, then the most likely problem is the winker relay. When you flick the turn signal switch and they sometimes flash, that's because you're working the relay repeatedly and jarring it into action. Try a new realy (the box that makes them flash) and you should be fine.

Testimonial: "thanks,that fixed it."

SOURCE: flashes turn signals 3 times quickly, will not

Sounds like alarm problem.Don't know why it starts cause anti theft part of system should shut down injectors?Anyway I think the 3 flashes tells you the system is armed so engine won't turn over.If you have remote key use that instead of key to shut off alarm after the flashing.NO go then wire around it and try starter.

SOURCE: abs lights flash back and forth. They don't turn

Hi, you could try re-setting the abs. To do this you will need a length of 2amp cable about 500mm long, fix a small crocodile clip to one end, remove seat and search for a three pin blank connector, when you have located this put key in ignition but do not switch on at this point. Bare the end of the wire and insert in CENTRE hole of socket, put croc clip onto a good earth, then press abs button at the same time turn on ignition, count for 30 seconds, let go of abs button, switch off ignition, remove cable, put seat back on. This should reset abs. Sit back and have a beer. Cheers.

SOURCE: Battery is charged, but bike will not start. When

First, check the "Run/Stop" switch on the right handlebar switch housing. Make sure it's in the "Run" position. If it is, your starter relay may not be working. The relay is exactly like those on your car, a one inch plastic cube. Now, where it's located, I'm not sure. It could be under the seat or behind either of the two side covers on your bike. Once you find it, turn the switch on, hold on to the relay, and push the start button. You should feel the relay click. If it does click but the starter does not engage, you need to test the voltage coming out of the relay.

To test the output of the relay, look at the end of your starter from the right side of your bike. You'll see a five sided plate on the end of the starter solenoid. At the top of the plate, you'll see a single wire plugged into the starter. Unplug the wire and stick a test light probe in the connector on the end of the wire. Again, turn the switch on and press the start button. If the light lights up, your relay is good. If not, the relay is probably bad.

To do a final test on the starter, remove the five sided plate by removing the three small bolts that secure it. You'll see a plunger inside the solenoid. Make sure the bike's transmission is in neutral. Using a large screwdriver, push the plunger into the starter solenoid. The starter should engage and turn the engine over regardless of whether the switch is "on" or "off". Make certain that you push the plunger all the way in. If the starter does not turn, you starter is bad.

Good Luck
