think my battery is @@@ked, I have traffic light battery tender type. Flashing red when I saw it,put trickle charger on , still red 3 days later. Angry with self but mmm how come tracker ( road angel) didnt contact me re: low battery alert. Mmm will start him up tomorrow and see how it goes indeed if will start!! Well pissed if won't start bike New in July think only have 1800 miles on it!
 
Is it still FLASHING red? You don't have proper connection or hookup. If it's SOLID red, then you may have a problem with the battery. If you have a quick connect, make sure the ends are pushed all the way in to each other.
 
You only get alerts from the tracker if they are enabled on the configuration settings and the voltage level is set to an appropriate value. With a fully charged battery and no charger connected, I get a low battery alert from my tracker (11.7v) after only four days.
 
Sorry I forgot to update! It was flickering red guess I hadn't pushed connected far enough. Anyhow it came back to like thank goodness
Haven't ridden it yet too much salt and mud
 
....also....check the inline fuse on the tender....they will blow, and still show a charging state (flash or solid green)
