Uhhhhh???????
Hey guys, I got a Tank Sports Urban 250 DE today... needed a battery..
SO I put a battery in it, and the headlights came on. Key wasn't even in the ignition. Also the fuse near the battery got REALLY hot. There is 5 fuses in the fuse box, is there supposed to be 6? I don't know anything about this issue what so ever! Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated. |

sounds like the switch is bad or you have some really bad wiring. What happens when the key us turned. Does it have an alarm with remote start?
