So the other day i notice my headlight is running only on the parking lite . flipped to Highbeam and highbeam bulb lites up....

Then i notice tail light is out . along with brake lite.

so pull seat off check fuses all good .... put things back together and Now NO headlight or Tail light or brake lite . All Dead ! no error codes on dash ( if suposto be )

So getting ready to start the trace down trouble shoot process - i'm horrible at electronics....

Anyone experience this symptom in the past and have a possible clue for me before i go mucking with things ?

Johnny

UPDATE: pulled H/L bulb - totally fried - i guess too much wheelies .

wonder if blown bulb means tail light is open circuit ? i'll find out.
RR...replace it before your battery gets executed too.
Yep, blown bulbs mostly indicate a voltage regulator that's going south...

Don't swap the tail light yet. My bet is a bad negative on the tail light.
Have a look at the wiring and make sure the negative of the tail unit is properly connected to the plug -earth lead.
