Try jumping your cylonoid post with a screw driver if it starts you got a bad cylonoid more than likely,if not it could be the clutch safety switch.

SOURCE: 06 s83 won't start. Rode for 70 miles, parked in

replace your battery although you have 12 volts your battery is producing very little amps not even enough to energize your start relay let alone your starter motor

SOURCE: just bought a 2001 vs800 intruder,got it home and will not start

If you're getting no lights then it is either the ignition switch or the battery is not making connection. Check the battery with a multi-meter. Check the fusebox with a multi-meter, any power to any fuses there with key on?

SOURCE: suzuki 1400 intruder wont start.. just clicking noise.

It's most likely the connection to the battery. The screws dont tighten in well and you get the famous clicking....I replaced the stock philips screws with a hex bolt and after two years of trying to solve the problen have been starting everytime for the past year no problems. Another gie away is the intermitant starting problem gets worse when wet.

I have a 1998 Suzuki intruder 1400, was running great all day, when I turn it off and turn back on nothing happen no lights nothing, battery is good and tight. I check fuses all good.

Load test the battery. (most bike shops will do it for free) Check charging system. (should be 13.5vdc running at 3000rpm)
Also, sounds like you may have a bad ignition switch?

I have a 2002 suzuki intruder 1400, the parking lights work in the front but not in the back, all turn signals work though

The simplest first thing you can do is make sure the bulbs are good. I doubt it has anything to do with the jumping. It is 12V, right?

1991 Camry, ran battery down, won't start with jump.

Check all fuses under dash and hood. Install a good battery or jump it. Have someone try to crank it while you check for voltage to the starter solenoid. Make sure all battery connection including ground to body are clean and tight. If good, make sure there is 12volts at the stater. If good, it sounds like a new sarter. Please let me know. Is this standard or automatic?
