No LCD display when I turn the ignition
In addition to my starting problems (see recent post) I now have more worries, man am I unhappy.
Trying to locate the source of my starting problem I was checking various electrical connectors I could see to make sure nothing had shaken loose and squirted a few with WD40. I took the tank off as I thought would allow me to maybe see a loose connector somewhere. Looking down the deep gap where the rear end of the petrol tank normally sits I could see an exposed thick brown lead bolted to a small cylinder with some other leads attached to it, they looked like it may be part of the ignition. As this small cylinder appeared to be exposed to the rear of the bike (sits close to the front left edge of the rear tyre) and I could see the rubber cap didn't fully protect the lead I thought it may bennefit from a quick spray. I gave it a quick skoosh and the alarm beeped once. I noticed that the speedo LCD and oil pressure lights had gone out. Now when I turn the ignition on the only light I see is the engine management light and the neutral light, there is no LCD reading at all. I turned it off and on again a few times and once or twice it did appear to come to life but quickley went out again. Can anyone tell me what went wrong and how do I fix it.
