: Blown Fuse

I attempted to start my '07 8-ball but couldn't get the engine to turn. It's about 15 degrees in MD so I was hoping to get the bike warm. I've never winterized it before, just start every other week and let it run. Anyhow, since I couldn't get it started I put on a trickle charger for a couple hours. Got it to started and let it run for a few and then shut it down before attempting to restart when a fuse blew. Is this just a "cold weather" problem? I'm not worried about replacing the fuse but more curious as to why it would blow by starting in the cold.

Might help if you shared which fuse blew

Actually, now I'm not so sure it's a fuse or not. I replaced the fuel pump fuse and that got the bike turned on but when I hit the start button it crapped out again. Could this be a bad relay? I looked at the fuse I had just replaced and it looked ok but I replaced it again w/ a new one and I've got nothing...

Weak battery, or bad contact of the terminals at the battery
