Harley Davidson— NEED HELP.
- Thread starter SashaTheBear17
- Start date
Check the battery power when the starter button is pushed. Sometimes a battery will have voltage to power all the leds, but not enough to engage the relays.
I just found a neutral safety switch was grounding out my system. Ruined a new lithium battery and wouldn’t engage the relay.

Update:
Battery was charged last night and I tried it out a few minutes ago. Nothing has changed, although I do hear a (not a click, but a single whirring sound) sound coming from the starter/solenoid.
Thinking of installing a direct starter button.
I’ll be checking the Neutral switch too

Whap that starter with a hammer once or twice then try it.
Did you check the oil? 
It is a Harley after all...

Sounds like the starter clutch is shot.
I had that go bad on my 07 Sportster last year. Bike had about 17k miles on it at the time.
When I hit the starter switch I could hear the starter spin, but it would not engage the engine.

Bad ground?

Replaced it two days ago... after this whole ordeal occurred.
Cleaned the grounds completely.
Did you whap it?
