2001 ducati 750ss wont start
does it start and run when you jump start it? if so, you probable need a higher cranking battery. sounds like the battery isnt powerfull enough.
Wont turn over
Pump Motor FUBRMy 750ss is normally laid up over winter and would not start this April. I realised the fuel pump was not humming on ignition switch on so lifted the tank, unplugged the 4 way electric plug and checked the resistance of the pump motor ( the 2 thicker wires of the four ) it was 0 ohms or open circuit. I removed the ring which holds the filler ( dont forget the one inside only visible when you open the flap. stuffed a rag in the opening and unscrewed the eight 2mm allen grub screws around the inside of the rim. tapped the ring with a lump of wood and pulled it free. unclipped the clip which held the rubber pipe from the filter to the fixed outlet pipe. unclipped the fuel pump from its clips and took it out. I stripped the pump and motor and found that the plastic part of the armature had melted and smeared over the commutator ( rotary contact ( on the motor, which was why the read open circuit.
The solution is a replacement motor and reassemble in reverse order. PP Don't smoke and disconnect your battery to prevent any sparks or you could grow wings without drinking red bull.
Hope this helps
