:confused:OK heres what in looking at...Went riding yesterday about 60 miles just for some air time. No problems at all. Got up today and was ready for a ride with the wife and pushed the dog out and turned on the key...No OIL light or Neutral light plus no Headlight. The signal lights are flashing like 4 ways. Bike stays on a tender and the battery is charged. after turning on the key all the lights on the EHC are on but 1-the linked light is not. i think this is right? after a few seconds all go out but the CONTROLLER ON / POWER / AND THE POWER UP IS FLASHING. I already removed and cleaned all contacts on the battery with no changes. Going to pull battery covers and check everything under there for tightness and check the circuit breaker. Thanks in advance for any help on this.....Suggestions or Ideas?????

OK heres what i found....
Battery voltage 13.7( UNHOOKED) and the battery is new (4 mths old.)
I disconnected the battery,starter lead,all battery wires hot and ground and the EHC. cleaned all contacts . The EHC had old dielectric grease( looked real flakey) in it so i used a small fine brush and got all the old gunk out and used Q-Tips for the rest. Loaded some NEW Dielectric in the connectors (all inside the battery area) and reassembled

:whoop:SUCCESS :whoop: reassembled everything and WALLAH all lights work and she fires right up.. Only thing i can think of is a bad connection on the EHC. The reason i say this is i cleaned all the battery contacts BEFORE anything else and this didn't fix the problem. So i think the ehc may have had a OPEN circuit somehow???? Only thing i can think of is vibration as a factor for this to happen. I hope this helps someone else down the road. Oh and after this i checked the EHC lights and only have 2 that come on now. CONTROLLER ON / POWER
:whoop:NOW LET'S RIDE:whoop:
I Want too thank KaptinAmerika for the help....
