I have a 2007 K9. I was riding it earlier this week and it just stopped. No electrical power at all. I was about 100 miles from home and went to the local AutoZone and asked them to test battery and the rocket scientist working couldn't stick his finger in his butt, so I just bought a new battery and went back to my bike and replaced it and still nothing. I then had to trailer it home. After getting it home I have checked the wiring from the ignition switch to the EHC and everything checks ok. The breaker checked ok too. I can't find and wires burnt or rubbed. I have tried putting 12 volts to the EHC and nothing happens still dead. Do you think I need to have Slick check it or is it pretty well FRIED.....
Thanks

I'm by no means a wiz about the electrical parts of these machines, BUT, it don't work right now, so why not take the opportunity to have it checked? If Slick says its' bad, you can go ahead and replace it. Otherwise, ya can spend a bunch of time and grief messin with things and still not have it runnin ! :2cents::2cents::patriot:

Yea, had mine tested and they said it was "100% rock solid", well it wasn't and I continued to beat my head against the wall trying to figure it out, :oldbang:I had a similar problem, but mine would do it intermittently, :oldangry: finally I bit the bullet and installed a ESC and no more problemo's! :whoop::old2::chopper:So as long as the person testing it knows what they are doing and has the proper equipment to test it with then I guess it's worth it, but for me it was just another big waste of time, you also should check to see if you are getting power from your left circuit board to the green wire on your starter, my circuit board went bad also at the same time, good luck!

I talked to slickwillie last night and we kicked a few things around.....I still have one of axels test ehc's that he sent to me to use as a testbed......I'm going to send it to slickwillie tomorrow and see if we can't get him back in the wind.
