Brozz electrical issue!

joker · 06-01-2017, 05:09 PM

Hello so I just purchased a new battery but for some reason I can't get any power. I can kick start the bike and everything lights up but no power when I turn the key and use the battery to start it. Please any suggestions?

Check all connections from the starter button to the connection to your starter solenoid and make sure there is power going to it when you push the starter button. Does the Brozz have a safety switch on the kick stand? might check that too if it does. There should be 2 red wires on the positive post of the battery. one with a fuse and the other to the solenoid. Make sure they are both hooked up.

I checked the ground which was I think a green wire under the gas tank connected to the spark plug module. I took it off and I was able to start the bike by kicking it over, everything lit up when the bike started, I was also able to use the electric start when the bike was running. It's got to be something that just has to do with the connections to the battery

Could be one of the safety switches like clutch lever switch, neutral switch.

Just thought of something. Doesn't the Brozz have a remote start? I know some have had issues with it.

It does have the remote! I wonder how I would go about adjusting it

joker · 06-01-2017, 06:33 PM

Ok so far I've checked the grounds on the plug and on the starter, along with the clutch switch. Neutral switch idk how to check although the green neutral indicator light is on when in neutral. Any other ideas?

This might sound stupid, but did you put acid in the new battery, and allow it to "soak" before charging it with only 1 or 2 amps?

Yes haha I did I also purchased a brand new maintenance free battery. I read the wires going into the harness from the battery might be too thin to let the voltage threw. If I turn the bike on by kicking then turn the key off and back on, the rpm guage will light up for a split second then turn back off.

Did you check the fuse?

Where would that be located? I really appreciate your help!

it should be right by the battery on one of the red wires. Mine is in a white housing.

One of the first things to check is the battery ground, where it attaches to the frame. Just because it looks good does not mean that it is good. Often, there is paint on the frame whwere the battery ground is attached. Paint is a so-so insulator. It will permit a low watt current to come back from the frame, but the paint stops the high wattage pull of the starter motor...ARH

Reconnect or enable the remote and then try to use it to start the bike.
I had an issue where I needed to do this to get it to start with the starter, also.
