. . . and now, the dash stays dark and pressing the starter button doesn't do anything. If the key is turned to ACC, the dash clock displays the time (1:00), though.
All this happened after I was changing the battery and allowed a loose wire to my GPS power to short the positive side of the battery to ground. Funny thing is that the inline fuse in the GPS power line didn't blow.
I've checked all the other fuses with an ohm meter, and they are all good. So is the fusible link next to the battery at the starter relay connection(s).
I've also disconnected the GPS power line from the battery, and still nothing . . . .
Does anyone know of another fuse or circuit breaker that might cause everything to be no-go? Or, do I need to trailer it into the dealer? I'm just about to spend some quality time with the factory manual, but I'm hoping for some help from the group.
It's an 07 ST1300 in case you can't see my avatar/etc.
