Triumph 1050 Gt Se Sports Tourer

Hi all,

I have a Triumph 1050 GT SE Sports Tourer 2013 (purchased new) - I am in Sydney Australia BTW.

I have had problems with my bike just stopping, no power after about 40 minutes of riding. It is like the immobiliser is kicking when riding; however, when I cruise to a stop and try to restart, it doesn't, and there is only power to the headlights.
A fiddle around, and it seems to get going again.

Fast forward to now:

1. I changed the battery in it a week ago.
2. Out for a ride today and after about 40 minutes it just stopped again. No matter what there was no power to the bike except the headlights.
3. I fiddled around with what looked like the relays. The only way I could get the bike to start and get me home was to leave them unseated, as per Bike_image 1.
4. When I got home, I reseated them, and the bike again would not start.

So my question(s) are:

a. Are these relays?
b. Are they easy to replace?
c. Do relays "die"

Otherwise the bike is running like a dream.

Thank you

 

Thank you for your reply
I have ordered new relays. Fingers crossed it is not a wire issue. I have checked for corrosion and it is pretty clean but it is also very tightly packed so it is hard to see.
