Was making a left turn from a red light. Took off and someone came up my left side mid turn(they went in to the oncoming lanes) then swerved back in to my lane. I grabbed 2 handfuls of brake and they ended up just clipping the front of my scoot. I laid it over and landed on my ribs, cracking one or some of them. Bike got tore up a bit. Battery came out of the compartment landed a few feet away from me.The person in the car didnt even stop to see if I was ok, whilst I was laying in the middle of a 7 lane wide intersection.
Anywho, damage is done... Didnt even get a vehicle description; but hopefully karma will come back to them. Meanwhile I cant get any power to my bike. I reinstalled the battery and no power, no guages or anything. I hooked the battery up to a volt meter to see if somehow the wreck screwed it up. Then i tried connecting it to a spare battery and still im not getting any power.

Run a continuity test. They can break without looking like it.

I'm with KZ on this one. The last, and only so far, time I had a bad fuse, it looked A-OK. Glad to hear you didn't get seriously hurt!
