2007 gtx limited has no power when dess is put on

[dmvm12]

Hi brain trust....
So.....
I have a 2007 gtx limited, took it to get serviced and also had a failed rectifier. That got sorted. 1 day out on the water, took it home washed it, flushed it etc. A few weeks later thought I'd make sure it's still charged etc so I chucked it on the trickle charger. After that went to start it. Nothing... No beep no dash lights, nothing.
After a few days here and there testing dess post and every wire on ohms of multimeter everything seems perfect. I put the key on and it's like the key won't wake up the ski. I took off all grounds 5 at the front, cleaned them, tested resistance. All seems OK. I did however notice if I touch a wire from negative on the battery to the 3 pin negative bus bar in the relay box it wakes up and I get beeps to start and can start it. If I leave key on it will beep forever, but if I remove key after 15 seconds the main relay turns off and can't wake it up again unless I touch negative from the battery to the negative bus bar again. Any ideas?

check the back side of the bus bar by removing the terminals from the fuse panel and look for bad connections and corroded terminals.

Well????? What did you find? I have exact same problem

Guessing that he had a bad connection which is why when he added a new ground wire it worked fine.

You should start a new post and put your year/model (this matters greatly) and exactly what you've tested so far. Usually this is a relay problem but can be bad post or connections.
