    I get power up to the 1st fuse which is 30amp but nothing past that. When I turn the key nothing happens. Can I bypass the ignition switch by placing a wire from the 30 amp fuse over to the first 10 amp fuse to see if the ignition switch is bad? Is there an easy way to bypass the ignition switch if that won't work? OR why don't I have any power at the ignition switch?

    I think you should find out why you dont have juice coming out from the 30amp fuse first.check big wires for connection tightness,corrosion within the wires insulation,and your basic grounds,while you're at it.Doesn't that 30amp fuse run all the stuff on your bike?

    I have juice going through the 30 amp fuse. Its ok. But according to the schematics it goes from there to the ignition switch. When I turn the key to start I got nothing so I think it may be the ignition switch so I would like to know a safe and effective way to bypass it. If it is not that then I'm not sure.
