No lights on dash

[FJrider1]

Just came back from sitting in a half hour of stop and go. I left the key in the on position...

went out after 20 minutes to find bike won't start, nothing, zilch. No light on the dash running light work and I found some antifreeze under the bike. Have it on the battery charger now. Any idea's? I figure I'll let it sit for a while, 96 degree's here...

Sonds like the battery to me. How old is the battery?

Running the fan in traffic takes a toll on the electrical system. And, the charging system is not putting out full power when you are in traffic running under about 4k rpm, but it should be able to handle this when the battery is in good shape. Any other farkles using electricity while you were out there?

Ideas? I would say you drained the battery. Let it charge for a while and then give it a go.

Clicky HERE for a similar situation.

Thanks Geezer, Scooter,

Sounds like thats the problem, battery has 17k on it '03. I'll let it sit on the tender for a while...

Jeez....clear the code, dead battery won't runa clock nor maintain it's memory, be aware heat kills far more batteries than cold. Order a new one, it's age and this episode, as well as a suspicion this isn't an anomoly (the traffic and heat that is) dictate that the oe is about done.
