starter button blowing fuse when pushed

<< < (2/2)

Ricky-D:
Yeah, I concur. You got a short that needs finding. Good analysis will help out lots.  Review the last things you have done to help see if that could be the cause of your problem. Don't jump to conclusions that can exacerbate your problem.

roadmap:
i will agree something not  right. but i have not done anything. just noticed it after i washed the bike. i guess something got wet.. i washed the bike without the seat on.  what i am trying to figure out, it only blows when the current is interrupted (push the button). turning the key off & on, that is not it. operating the turning signals, that is not it. brake light, that is not it. they have there own fuse, but it interrupts or ads power to the current,  ok!!  starter button new late last year, this works the headlight fine, with that in mind the the switch is still good.

now what to check, the wires that run from the switch to the fuse panel no way to check all the wiring. at the ends or where connections are. now it is getting harder . the fuse operates under normal condition just fine. so how do i check something that is working right at the time of checking. that tells me no breaks in the wiring. no bare wires.

PLEASE TELL ME WHERE TO GO FROM HERE.   WHERE IS THE SHORT WHEN THE FUSE WORKS OK

time to check starter switch

junior:
you could have pinched the wires in the switch housing when you reassembled it

Hoser:
You need to put those driving lightx on a relay, it tells how in the shop talk section.

There you go!
