Petey. It was a wasted trip to the dealer. All you had was a dirty switch. What happened to you has happened to my 04 FJR on 3 different occasions. Except for in my cases, I generally have to cycle the switch about 50 times before it lights up again. It's just dirt/grime. Barabus has an excellent post somewhere where he disected his swtich.Well, another ignition switch is biting the dust, well not completely dead. <_< '06A with 30K miles. Turned the key to on and... nothing zilch, I think a dash light or two just went on for a split second and then absolutely nothing. Checked the battery, it was fully charged. Turned the key on then off again, still nothing, no sound, nothing. Now I remembered the I/switch problem that some of you fellers had, back to playing with the switch...on,off,on,off, now after doing this 4-5 times, wolla, the dash lit up and the bike fired right up.The bike is at the dealer now, and hopfully it will show up or show some evidence when they pull it apart. :angry:
It happend to me at about 50,000 miles, 80,000 miles, and at 125,000 miles. Still have my original switch.
