Sorry if you've already answered by posts in a previous thread, but now I have a new problem. Slightly long-winded but here's the history of faults:
Had fault code 46 appear, garage said it was loose wire on reg/rec and gave it back to me.
Had trouble starting so fitted new battery.
Took it out on Sunday for a long ride, no fault lights, but then had two bulbs blow and bike totally died. When I came to a stop the new battery was totally dead and the RR was smoking (battery is now dead, won't hold any charge).
Fitted new RR, used an older battery which started the bike on the button, but when I came to start it after work it didn't even have enough power to prime the fuel pump (the whirring at ignition didn't appear).
I've just fitted a brand new battery (pre-charged it of course) and the fuel pump still will not prime.
So, it has new RR, new battery but now not priming at start. I've used the correct battery and RR, all of the connectors look clean and not corroded. Any ideas what to check next? If it could be a number of things then I will take it back to the garage and pay for it to be done, but didn't want to do that if there's something obvious I have missed and an easy(ish) fix.
thanks,
