Hopefully you will find a solution to both of your issues here:

Good evening Landisr!
I replace the 5amp fuse and I solved both problems :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: Thank you very much!!!
However, I think i should replace the battery, because in a few minutes (with engine off) goes down :(
Which battery do you recommend?
Than you very much, I love youuu :D

I am not sure what battery suppliers you have over there. I would search your web for a battery listed for your bike. I would highly recommend an AGM style. They work great and are maintenance free.
