So I have the 07 EG classic up on a jack with the rear tire removed and it's getting replaced at the shop. Since the bike is down for maintenance I decided to knock out a few odds and ends. While adding the tender pigtail I accidentally shorted the battery with my wrench. Quickly pulled it away but now I have no headlight, no radio, no dash lights, and the bike will not turn over. I have pulled the side panels and checked the fuses with my multimeter, they all him out fine. I pulled the 40 ohm main fuse and it is fine.

Any ideas what else I should be checking? I'm hoping nothing too major is wrong!

Thanks, this forum has helped me out numerous times on several different issues over the years.

Okay.... So I'm a dumbass.... I just unplugged the battery tender and my headlight is now working.... I tightened up the battery terminals a little and she just fired.

Sometimes I guess stepping away and coming back later is the best solution. Thank you!

Check for a code now, should be a low battery voltage code stored, clear it. :thumbsup
