Bike doesn't start

[Mosqui]

I felt from my bike the other day and the bike doesn't start. The engine turns but looks like the ignition is not working. On the right side of the bike (behind the plastic cover) there is a little black box and a box with fuses. That little box is broken, any idea what it is? it only has 3 cables.
I'll add some photos later to show where I think the problem is.

The bike is a 2007 FZ6N, it was running very well until I felt, now tank, handle bar and a few other details are not as good as they were ((

Thanks in advance for any help.

I'm thinking that my be the angle sensor?
Shuts the bike off when it falls over.
If that's what it is,
If it's number 28 in the drawing here

That's what it is.
Good Luck!:thumbup:

That's make sense. I'll give it a try.

Thanks

+1^^^.


That tip over switch should have "UP" imprinted on it. If its damaged, agreed, thats likely your issue. If its not, usually turning off the ignition, getting the bike upright, re-sets the switch...

I think is the number 34, but if that the case not sure where 28 is.
It would be good if someone takes a similar photo of a running bike, so I can see how it should be.
I'll try and hold the broken box up to see if it works.
Thanks

Another photo. The socket hanging from the fuse box looks damaged too. It has a fuse missing at the end as well.

The 3 wire part(thats really tore up) IS the tip over switch.

In my pic's, you can see"UP" on it, that the TOS, yours is just damaged very badly...(

Thanks for that. Now I can how it was.

What do you have when you open that "tail" cap? I guess a fuse, but which size?

You should also see faults on the display if the sensor is bad.

If its just in the wrong position, try different orientations and look to the display to indicate an actual fault with the lean angle sensor.
#41 comes to mind (open or short).
#30 if its working but at the wrong angle during start up.

Also you can test it with an ohm meter.
Because the resistance values are so low, short the leads and write down the value seen from the shorted leads. Say its 0.75 ohms. Subtract this from the value taken from the sensor.

Upright: 0.4 – 1.4 ohms
Overturned: 3.8 – 4.2 ohms
Remove the lean angle sensor and incline it more than 65 degrees.

If you click on the pic, then click again, it'll open it much larger;
I can't make it any larger, the pic is bigger than the actual units...

The fuses are installed the same ORDER as the cap, copy the cap(with the cap open)

No, I'm talking about the little white thing that says "TAIL". I have the top cap missing and want to know what is in there.

Thanks

The tail light fuse...

From the OWNERS MANUAL;

The tail light fuse is 10A

If you need a copy of the S2 owners manual, PM me with an e-mail address

It's clear now, the sensor is destroyed, so I'll get a new one and a few "other things" to get back on the road.

Thanks to everyone.
