I should have said that this is a 1987 model, one of the early Jelly Mould machines.

General Discussion / Honda fuel relay
« on: October 20, 2017, 11:21:15 PM »
Hi, new here so please excuse any etiquette slip ups.
i own a 1987 Honda CBR 600, and it's been off the road for about 11 years. I have decided that I will keep it forever as one of my two bikes. the other is a 1954 velocette MAC. I have sold all the others and now have some garage space to allow me to work on these two.
The Honda has a fault I do not understand, and i am not a newcomer to motorcycle electrical problems, I have had a few!

The fuel relay does not allow the fuel pump to run. the pump runs fine if I short out the relay, and the relay is getting a full battery voltage on both the input wire and the wire from the spark unit. It only has three connections, input, output and the spark unit wire.
I have tried an other fuel relay from ebay with the same result, so invested all my pocket money in a  spanking new one, same result!
I am tearing out my few remaining grey hairs, can anyone explain my problem, or lead me to solve it, please?
Many thanks in anticipation
John
