Headlights not working

Post by Dazzle »

Hi just trying to sort a few problems on my bike. The rear lights and indicators work fine as do the speedo and rev counter back lights, my problem is the headlight, when i turn the ignition on theres nothing even the pass switch doesn't do anything i've put a new relay on and checked all the fuses. Could it need a new switch gear? i've bypassed a wire where the relay goes and can get the main beam to work its just dipped beam. Thanks Daz

if you've put a new relay on i'd say the switch has gone, was it brand new from a dealer?

Yes it was. i'll have another fiddle with the connectors and check for voltage at the switch failing that i'll try another switchgear. Thanks for your help!

Is it just me or is a post about lights not working from 'Dazzle' ironic or what?
