New battery, charged it, has juice-lights turn on horn works. I hit the start button and it makes an electric shock noise but won't crank the engine at all. Both neg. and pos. cables are tightly secured to the battery posts.

Battery is charged - motor will not start.

Sounds like bad battery connections or ground. Brake lights on permanently may be draining battery also. Brake light issue may be switch at pedal out of position or adjustment.

Tw200 electrical schematic

hi
few things
new batteries only hold a little charge in them
so make sure it is fully charged
if your bike is making a clicking noise when you press the starter but is still not turning it is your starter solenoid
if it is making a clicking noise then your starter motor has seized and your solenoid is ok
if not making a clicking noise
it is possible your starter solenoid is broken and will need replacing
easy test is the starter solenoid has two electric poles on it
one going to the battery the other going to your starter motor
get a large spanner (wrench)
and with the ignition turned on
touch both poles with the spanner
("caution") this will spark a little so make sure there is no fuel close by
if the engine turns over
then your solenoid needs replacing

Electric start doesnt seem to be working

If there's no noise at all your battery is either dead (jump start or new battery). If it clicks then there isn't enough charge in your battery to start the bike (charge battery or bump start)

Won't turn over

Even though all your other electrical bits are working it could be that your battery doesn't have enough juice to crank the engine. It doesn't take much power to run the radio, lights, etc, but cranking the engine requires the battery to have a very strong charge. If your battery is more than 5 years old, that's very likely the issue. I'd start there. Also, be sure to check the battery terminals and ground for corrosion and clean if necessary. If replacing the battery doesn't solve the problem it could be the starter solenoid or a loose electrical connection somewhere.

2001 GMC Sonoma. SLS 6 Cyl 4 WD 4.3 Vortec. I turn the key on and nothing happens. My dash lights up, all lights come on, fuel pump runs, starter relay clicks, Still nothing. I replaced the starter,...

Tilt the steering wheel down all the way and see if it starts, if it does then there is a main power wire loose in the steering columb. Thats all which comes to my mind at this time.

Starting problem, clocks light up engin turns softly. not starting. please assist. contact [email protected] please if anyone can assist, its a friends bike.

make sure that your battery is fully charged to have enough cranking juice. It happened to my VFR as well, headlights & clock worked but not enough juice to crank. I had this problem with my OEM honda battery, and eventually replaced with aftermarket battery with higher CCA (Cold Cranking Amps). A good thing esp if you live in cold countries

I have a 98 cadillac deville and my car won't start everytime I try to turn it on it make a consistent clicking noise...but then I charged the battery and it started up fine. Could this be the alternator...

The clicking noise is usually the starter solenoid failing to engage. In your case it sounds like it is just barely starting to fail and the new battery simply gave it enough juice to overcome and start. I would expect the problem to return soon. When it does, locate the starter and give it a few light taps with a hammer or other weighted object while turning the key. this should enable it to start. In that case you will need to replace the starter.
