I bought a 1998 GSX a couple months ago. My first problem was a loose negative battery connection - which presented some strange symptoms but I eventyually figured it out. My next problem was a beeping every couple minutes caused by my faulty fuel level system that I haven't yet completely fixed but was able to silence by using the jumper
tip I found on this site - thank you.
Now I have a new problem with it not turning over at all. I have charged the battery fully, cleaned all the connections I could reach, tried to jump the relay posts, tried to run a separate ground from battery to engine and all I still get is a buzzing and clicking from the coil. The only thing I am unable to do is check the connections directly on the starter (without disassembling alot of parts). Does this lead anyone who is knowledgable to a cause ? Starter, relay, coil, ground, other ??????? It is a very fun machine ......... when it is running !
