I have a 2001 V11 Sport that occasionally leaves me stranded. I turn the key and I don't hear the fuel pump noise and when I press the starter button,I get nothing. Sometimes if I wiggle the wires that go under the tank it will work ,but not all the time?
Help

If you wiggle the relays do you hear the pump prime? |

Note, no fuel pump either so a bit more complicated...

When I had a problem like this on my sport I ended up with the fuel tank hanging above the bike so I could tug and wiggle all the wiring and relays connectors when bike was running or would not run

Common fault. The injection relay overheats. Try replacing with a bigger amperage micro relay 30 amp. EBay sell them. Not very expensive.
Another possible fault is where the relay doesn't connect with the bayonet within the relay holder/socket. Lift the relay row out. turn it upside down & gently push the bayonet connectors deeper into the housing. Be gentle & make sure you don't damage any wiring.
