DEAD COYOTE

The circuit breaker is good. The relay is for the horn. I have a +cable going to the circuit breaker. From the other end of the circuit breaker a cable comes out straight to the EHC to power it up . I know for a fact I have power going through it (EHC) because I have power at the ignition plus I physically tested the connection inside the plug. The last thing I'm going to check is if there is any power coming out from the ignition when I turn the key. Other than that, I think the EHC is bad. There are no other fuses or circuit breakers (visible). I really screwed the damn thing...

Sounds like you have the wires mixed up on that circuit breaker. Like I have said numerous times, the circuit breaker or Maxi fuse are only used for the charging system. You should have one wire from Voltage regulator to Silver post and one wire from Gold post to positive side of battery. No other wires should be hooked into this breaker. All other wires go to battery.

If you go into my gallery you'll see 2 pictures. One is the breaker and the other is the relay for the horn. If you take a look at the breaker picture you'll see the breaker with the red hot wire(left) coming from the battery and the other wire going to the ehc. I don't have to touch this wires for anything. That is how they are wired. The bike was running perfect.

Ok, well I can tell you with 100% certainty, that wire going to EHC should be on the positive side of the battery, not the breaker. But regardless, the EHC is most likely bad. I would at this point take it out and send to Curtis for further testing.

That would be really nice if somebody on here could get into Repairing these EHC's:)...........surprised no members on here have yet:confused:,we got some talented members on here:cheers:..........

I not to sure you can repair,either tests good or bad, all the circutry is podded over, if a component is fried, you would destroy the thing getting through the podding. And as sensitive as these are, like don't add lighting or anything else that requires 12v power to anything other than the battery itself, hooking up to the battery to the wrong sides is definitly an OH SHIT moment.:bang:

Just to let you know the black epoxy material poured into the EHC is referred to as potting material, not podding.

And NO, the EHC's are not designed to be repairable.

Well what about a podded engine on your Dog?

A podded engine is a jet engine in a pod, typically attached below the wing or to the tail of the aircraft. The pod itself is called a nacelle.

Placing engines on the wing provides beneficial wing bending relief in flight. The further the engines are away from the fuselage the greater the wing bending relief so engines buried in the wing root provide little relief. Almost all modern large jet airplanes use engines in pods located a significant distance from the wing root for substantial wing bending relief. The pods are in front of the wing to help avoid flutter of the wing which, in turn, allows a much lighter wing structure. Locating the pod below the wing provides each engine with air undisturbed by the fuselage or wing. The wing also blocks some engine noise from reaching the aircraft cabin. :D

Send it to Curtis and he can verify/check, if its fried or not and possibly fix you up on another one. 2 maybe 3 days to ship it to him and 1 day back, however he does that, but he does.
