Hello everyone. This is a great site you guys have here. I'm recently retired and I'm the family mechanic. I can pretty much work on anything, but I still need help in the worst way. My son and his friends tried to jump start his '00 Katana GSX600 using a car. That's bad enough, but they also crossed the jumper cables reversing the polarity. The battery was fried and all the electrical went dead. I installed a new battery and everything is still dead. All of the fuses in the little box above the battery are good. There is another little box next to it. Could that have blown? Is there a circuit breaker or 30 amp fuse somewhere? Could the alternator and ignition be toast? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

There is a fuse on the left side of the bike, under the fairing, by the seat. It's white. Try that. Dont know about the alternator and such.
Follow that link, and see the pic. Good luck.ハイどーぞバカ外人！

Semper Fi! Tell your son to stay frosty, for me. I was also 1st MarDiv, but out of Pendelton. Infantry.Originally posted by aolis110 View Post
At any rate, I hope you get the situation with the bike squared away. Some of the folks who know more than I do around here are Kreylyn, Wild Bill, Steves, Mojoe, Arsenic, Scottynoface and a few others. Maybe hit one of them with a private message, for more assistance.ハイどーぞバカ外人！

Thanks to all! The fuse is where Scout showed me. There is a fuse box the behind left side cowling towards the front of the seat. Pull the wiring plug, and pull the cover. It holds two 30 amp fuses. One is a spare. I Replaced the blown one and all is good. You don't have to remove the whole cowling to get to it. Remove the top bolt and the two bottom bolts, and carefully pull back the cowling. You will be able to get to the box. Like I said. This is a great site!Comment

Glad you got the bike back up and running. Don't forget to replace that fuse before you need another one.Comment
