F12X won't start

[fugli]

Help, my F12X won't start.

The ski has been sitting in my garage for 1+ year with no activity. I went get it ready a couple of weeks ago and the battery was dead. I tried charging the battery but it would not take a charge. I went and bought new battery and now the ski turns on and I can hear the fuel pump but when I hit the Start there is nothing, no clicks, just silence. It sat due to getting a new wife and kid.

Any idea what the problem is? Should I take it to the, Ouch, dealer?

Thanks for any help.

Does anyone know what the part number for the starter relay is? The only relay I could find is RELAY ASSY., MAIN 38580-HW1-672 (replaces 38580-HW1-671)

That is it.

Try tapping the starter and hold the start button at the same time!

Thanks JR!


Jake,
Tapping may work unless it is a solid state relay but I will give it a try before I spend the dough, thanks.

Well I tried tapping the relay, it is behind the starter right? No joy. Placed the order for a replacement. How difficult will this be? I haven't done serious wrenching in a while.

Thanks

It is very easy.

Guys,

I need some serious help. My F12X still will not start. I have replaced the battery, the Main Relay, checked the fuses and still nothing. When the lanyard is inserted the fuel pump runs and then when I hit the start button there in no sound at all. Do I need to break down and take it to a mechanic?
