Default Could it be a fuse?

I ride a 2002 cbr600f4i, and shes having some troubles. When I turn the key, all the lights come on, just like usual. When I turn the engine stop switch on, however, you can't hear the fuel injection turning on, and when the starter button is pressed, nothing happens.

Could this be the result of a blown fuse? I was also thinking that maybe the engine stop switch is broken somehow, because all the electrical still works.

Any ideas from the MCF masters would be greatly appreciated.

Check the actual electrical connection to the fuel pump. There should be a plug/conector somewhere with some wires in it.
Had the same issue on my K75.

Sounds dumb, but make sure the bikes in neutral.

Fixed it, I just checked the connections to the starter relay, cleaned them off a bit, then went to start it to listen for the click and it turned on. Sweet.

I think the connection just became loose or something.
