2008 Lance 250cc just dies but starts afterwords? By marvinlee (Read 623 times)

I got a 2008 lance duke 250 touring. Runs great no problems, except ; it's done this 3 times; it just dies, like someone pulled the plug, but always starts back up. Can any one help guide me to where to look for, I'm assuming a loose wire, or something? Any ideas would be great, Marvin.

Also it just did it when I hit a bump, I think the bump helped. I'm sure it's a loose something. Looks like time to trace from battery; which is tight, and go from there.

Yes check all your connections and also check the wires to the fan and sensor

Yep! That's the first thing tomorrow. I'll look for ground wires, everything on the right side of that bike, and the fan sensor area.

Well I checked as best I could. I found that the main positive red wire was not tight, but not loose. I suspect just enough when you hit a bump or something it kicks off. It's tight now. This was the only area on the bike I had not invest aged to tighten things.

Update. Well it did it again, but started. I quit using the Kill Switch to shut the bike off, and have not had it die yet. Yep, it's in there, those cheesy connections, I remember seeing when I padded the plastic windshield . If I'm really stranded I can get to it with a Phillips . Later.
