Scarver No Crank

After finishing the pannier project, I was going to go for a test ride.  Hit the starter button.... NOTHING!

Battery has more than 12v.  I hear the fuel pump come on.  All the lights are nice and bright.

SO....  I narrowed it down to, perhaps, three things, starter, starter relay, or the starter button.

What's the easiest to work on?  It's the starter button.  So I started to take it a part.


Sprayed with a electrical contact cleaner and scrubbed the button surface with a flat head screw driver.




Then turn the ignition on and hit the button.

YAY, she runs again!  Thank goodness, it was ONLY a dirty contact.
