So I came across a deal I couldn't pass up, a 01 ST4 for $500. Catch is that it was from a salvage auction, was laid down on the right side and didn't come with any keys. Oh well, for $500 it will be a nice project bike.
So I went through the usual routine, replaced right clip on and switches, new battery, checked fluids and fuses, and got a new ignition set with keys. Turned the key and gauges turn light up, horn and lights all work, flipped kill switch but didn't hear the fuel pump prime. Thumbed the starter... nothing. No cranking, no fuel, absolutely nothing.
The problem definitely seems electrical right? So I traced back my steps, do you think any of these could be the culprit?
1. Is the ECM "married" to the stock key, so when I switched the ignition/key it won't start as a security precaution?
2. There is a loose, 2-wire harness dangling near the battery area. One wire is black, the other is blue/red. Not sure what that is for.
3. There is a burnt looking circle on the top of the ECM, not sure if that is normal or not.
4. Besides the kickstand sensor are there any other safety ignition bypasses?
Please help me Ducati experts!
