    That would be impossible to say without a total guess. Even the solid state ECM is pretty hardy and will typically survive that mistake, unless it was repeatedly hammered like that.

    The proper way is to download the service manual for free from Buellmods.com or Buelltooth.com and follow the wiring diagram in the back to see what is in that circuit that is affected. But no one seems to be willing to do it that way

    That said... if you are still wanting to guess, I'd bet the ignition relay got cooked. They are all the same in the fusebox, so swap one from another spot to see. If you need one, they are available to match up from an auto parts store. I don't recall the # by heart but part numbers are available in the cross-reference thread if you need that.

    Edit: I guess LF and I were posting at the same time. LOL

    Ok, followed what you instructed lunatic...
    All 3 relays out, kill switch off, turned key to on.
    Dummy lights came on, headlight/taillight came on, needles swept.
    Inserted key switch relay, ignition fuse blew and everything went off.

    Running to autozone cause that was my last 15a fuse, need some more and I guess I'll pick up some relays while I'm there?

    So thankful for help guys...feel like I'm making progress!

    Use a different relay than the one that was in the ignition position originally. LF and I are thinking/hoping/guessing it is THAT relay causing the fuse to blow

    That did it...was the key switch relay. Picked up 2 in case there was another bad relay but just replacing the key switch relay worked...she fired up relatively quickly from what I would have expected after being dormant for almost 16 months and ran smooth for a short ride around the neighborhood. Thank you guys so much...lunatic, cooter, 34...would have been lost without your help!

    Miami78, Still have the old relay?

    I'm curious to see how hooking a battery up reversed, will blow a relay. Can you open it up?
