Hello everyone,
GSX went from starting perfectly to only sometimes activating the starter when pressing the start stop button and then not at all. I opened up the black starter relay box in the rear and pulled the signal plug off the top of the solenoid; when I hit the start stop button, my multimeter only blips continuity (between the black and yelllw/red wire) for a brief second when I press the start stop button, no matter how long I press it.
I unplugged the start stop button wires before it goes into the MPEM and the meter shows continuity there when pressing the button. When I let the display turn off naturally after putting the DESS key on the post and it display is lit for 30seconds; pressing the start stop button only lights the display for a second and then it turns off. I don't remember this as normal.
So my question is: is it a problem in the MPEM? All fuses check fine and the solenoid turns over the starter when jumped.
Thanks for the help.
