What happens when you replace the circuit breaker on a Harley Davidson?
Upon initial turn over the circuit breaker clicks and everything goes dead, no lights, ignition or anything else electrical. After replacing the circuit breaker everything looks good but when I hit the start button the breaker clicks and I’m back to square one.
Where does the starter power come from on a Harley Davidson?
The starter power comes from the positive cable. Only the crank circuit like the solenoid and relay with the associated wiring to the bars would effect the breaker. <snip>A short in the starter itself wouldn’t open the breaker.
Why does my Harley Davidson not turn on?
The first one specifically says press starter switch and check voltage at following locations: “No. 30 Terminal if low voltage at No. 30 terminal indicates bad connections from main circuit breaker or grounds” When I meter at the terminal it registers 12 volts. When I press the starter switch it drops to 9 volts.

What causes a starter to blow a circuit breaker?
Something is shorting to blow the breaker. Since it is only happening when you hit the start button you would have to guess that the starter circuit is going to ground. Follow the wires and look for bare spots. Could be the starter motor/solenoid. This link is for cars but the principal for checking applies Bench Testing a Starter Motor

How many wires does a 1990 FLHS have?
I have a 1990 FLHS, there are 3 wires 1 wire from the battery, 1 that goes to the switch (50) and 1 other wire. I cannot remember how this connects except for the switch wire. Does the battery and the smaller wires go the terminal without the boot? Also once connected it turns over but won’t start. It has been a year since it was started.
