Re: [ST] [RS] 2001 RS starter engine dead ?



Its more than likely going to be a volts supply fault in the
switch or loom. You need to check if you have 12 volts going
to the switch and then operate the start button to see if
you have 12 volts on the other side- if you have then check
if you have the volts at the end of the wire on the starter
motor. Are you sure its not a clutch switch or side stand
switch fault? Either way you need a multimeter and it would
make the job easier if you had a wiring diagram.
  Good Luck Chris

Thanks a lot Chris, i'll run your tests.
I'm fairly confident it's not a side stand switch issue, and
yes i'll re-check the clutch cos i already fixed that one
but who knows it may have snapped again...
