You are correct it's a voltmeter from harbor. Ran jumper like you said still doing the same thing.

Okay I have to say UNCLE on the ground thing.

Have you tried replugging the relays in your fusebox?

I've pulled the 2 n 3 relay I believe n checked all the fuses. I read somewhere about switching relays but can't remember which ones

The display will reboot if it sees a voltage of less that 12.4V or so.

I am not sure of your source for the 12.4V but that has to be incorrect. During engine crank a new fully charged battery would have trouble maintaining 11V and BRP states in in the service manual anything above 10V is acceptable.

Jumper ground is tight. 12v not running n 13v idle run

Here's why I still believe probably have a ground problem.

You should actually read 12.7 Volts at rest and something close to 13.8 at idle or above 2500 rpm.

The display will reboot if it sees a voltage of less that 12.4V or so and the only reason it would see that would be either your charging system isn't working (stator or voltage regulator) or a bad ground.

I am not sure of your source for the 12.4V but that has to be incorrect. During engine crank a new fully charged battery would have trouble maintaining 11V and BRP states in in the service manual anything above 10V is acceptable.

But you have to admit that the 12 and 13 (if accurate), do indicate a problem. The voltage definitely should be 12.6 or 12.7 minimum at rest -- and it's important to note that must be truly at rest, several hours after being charged or the engine run. Immediately after being charged or the engine has been run (and charging), the voltage will be higher and taper off gradually. The BRP spec for charging for the 998's is 13.0-14.0 V at 4,000 rpm with high beams on, both grips on Hi, nothing else turned on. When I checked mine several times while running, it never went below 13.8V, even at idle. So either Thundercat's voltmeter is off by 0.7 V or he's got a problem with too low a voltage, using my 2011RT's voltage as a standard for comparison.

A typo
I calculate it as 11.4V (a nominal 12V minus a 0.6 V diode drop which is standard for LSI modules, but I won't defend it any further.

new battery issue

Maybe it's an even simpler solution - new battery is a dud ?? It does happen...
