Hi,

I just changed my coolant following the instructions in the service manual.

I removed the inner fairings, fuel tank, didn't remove the reservoir, removed the bolt from the fuel pump and the cap.

I plugged in the two electrical connectors on the fuel tank and the three tubes.

When I turn on the bike there are no warning lights. Press the starter and it just makes a loud buzzing noise. When I release the starter I hear the fuel pump.

The bike was fine before the coolant change.

The bike is a 2006.

Thanks for any help.

When I got back earlier, before changing the coolant, I had left the ignition in the on position.

I forgot about that.

So the battery was drained. Bump Start worked.

Thanks Chevy Fazer!!!

Yea def try push start or maybe you hit your engine kill switch but I don't think starter engages with kill switch on...Maybe your terminals are loose or your battery is low
