Morning all,

Having a bit of a shocker here, can't get the SV to start. Problem is, after the datatool went crazy for a while I now have zero power, no turn over, no dash lights, no datatool screaming even, nowt.

I've popped the battery out and put it on trickle charge, which is suggesting the battery is fine. I've found a popped fuse in the starter relay, other than that everything seems as it should be.

Is the starter relay fuse likely to hold the key to all my woes, or am I in for a nasty surprise? Anyone had a similar problem? I know there's recorded history of problems relating to the side stand cutout, but can't see why that would be making a difference as when I last stopped it, I slipped it into neutral first.

One week after it finally passed its MOT too. rolleyes Any help much appreciated!
