Make sure the battery is good then chech the pc111. Did you wash it recently? Disconect the pc111 and make sure there isn't any water in the conection....

Does your bike have a master circuit breaker? I ride a Deuce and am not familiar with your model.

If all power is out, you need to start with the battery, then go to the main circuit breaker or maxi-fuse, whichever you have, and start tracing from there to the ignition switch.

One other possibility is the bank angle sensor which is part of the TSM/TSSM.

Look for cable rot inside the sheathing. Same thing happened on my Sporty. Trapped water rotted the cable inside the secondary sheathing.

I have seen bad neg battery cables on this your make and model bike do a voltage drop on both neg and pos cables off the battery. Also the max fuse may have blown for some reason it is under the side cover in its on holder.

You did check the battery cables at the opposite end from the battery right ? Then Maxi, All Grounds, All fuses then ignition switch.

Good luck.

Thanks for all the help guys. Here is what happened somehow the maxi fuse / wires came loose and dropped down by the belt and of course over time the belt cut one of the wires in half. All fixed and back to normal now. Thanks again for the suggestions
