Does anyone know if theirs a resistor in the key ignition trying to figure out why my bike won’t start?

Seems to be injectors not pulsing.
Starts right up with fuel sprayed into throttle body and with injectors jumped straight to ecm.

I’ve replaced tilt sensor, harness, fuses & relays, fuel pump and filter, throttle body, (injectors), bypassed kickstand.
Did valve adjustment.
Regular maintenance, has spark.

2010 Honda Shadow VT750RS help

Uploaded a video with DTC Codes if anyone could help much appreciated!!!

Honda does have a security system called HISS and the key does have a chip. But I don't know if all have it in that year range.
The DTC may be the whole solution.
Do you have a manual for the bike?

 

[OGJmar]

I’m seeing 7,8,9 and honestly I don’t understand the last few .
Also im going to have to do more diving on that can’t really find much regarding this bike online.

 

[OGJmar]

Ok so codes are 7,8,9,29,12,13
Going to reset codes and if they come back up could it potentially be a timing problem? couldn’t find anything on service Manuel or online about the key ignition system.

 

[swifty2014]

If it is 7,8,9 then these are the circuits involved.
Maybe a bad harness or connections to those components.
I wouldn't think timing until all the computer inputs are satisfied.

Hell Give me points, carbs, and kick start

"Back in the day" I used to could fix `em, but these computers are WAAYY Over my Head...

Good Old days,
Dennis

I cleared the codes and gave it a few cranks no codes are popping up 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃

 

[swifty2014]

Exactly, Capt. D, that was much easier back then.
Each system could be identified and fixed by itself.
If you had no spark, look in the distributor and the points.
If the timing was off, twist the distributor a little.
Misfire check the plugs and wires.
If you had no fuel there was a fuel pump easy to get at and test.
Nowadays the computer gets many inputs and figures out how much fuel, and when to fire the spark, and adjust the timing according to speed and load, and how far to open the throttle for idle speed, etc,etc.

i just wanna riiiiiiddeeee 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃

I am VERY Glad your Fix is DONE OGJmar

I Like the computer stuff When it works,

🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃 How`d you do dat???

I ain`t seen `em upside down before,

Timing is definitely off a bit, we will see what the future has in store 🙃 I’m starting to regret getting a Fuel injected bike…

 

[OGJmar]

Fuel pressure was the staring issue missing o ring on top of the pump where it sits into the bucket.
Still have bogging issues with new injectors,
Thinking of redoing the timing and the valve adjustment.

question when the Front is TDC and the camshaft sprocket is horizontal, does it matter what way the cam is facing? Noticed F and the B engraved.

also will the rear be offset to that 🤔

No, just point it toward St. Louis.

If the camshaft sprocket is horizontal that means the bike is laying on it's side.

OG,

To answer your question seriously,

When the front piston is at TDC on the compression stroke, the cam lobes will always face downward, The F and B indent lines on the cam sprocket will be level with the head surface (with the alphabet letters in the upright readable position), and the stamped F on the camshaft facing up. If any of these are different rotate the crankshaft bolt 360° CCW.

At the same time you check these settings, the rear cylinder timing marks will be off by 305° or 412°, just according to which way you turn the crankshaft.

All of this is based on you not having already done a complete teardown of the cam systems and positions.

All of this information is available in the 750 AERO service manual available in the 'sticky' section of the forum.
