Well, I know that this can't be solved on a forum board, so I am really just venting.....
Hubby's 07 Nomad developed a dead battery problem about 3 or 4 months ago. It's the WORST kind of problem though.....it doesn't happen all the time!!!!!!
He can go weeks with it starting up every time, then suddenly one day...BAM, dead battery!!!! It may only go days the next time before going dead. He replaced the battery before the PA Forum trip and thought maybe that solved it, but Sunday morning he went out to start it for work and it was dead. He had our local mechanic (whom we trust very highly) check over his wiring on things he has added himself (light bar, brake light modulator, etc.) and he didn't find any problems with the wiring.
So, here's something that I am wondering....since it doesn't do it all the time it will be hard for a dealer mechanic to pinpoint it, I'm sure. Should we trailer it in during a dead spell and NOT charge it? Could they possibly find the cause like that?
The bike, of course, is still under warranty, but this is the busy season. Hubby said for now he'll recharge and ride until winter sets in. It's just very frustrating
