Electrical issues

Post by Yabsley9603 »

Hi guys ,
Just seeing if a common issue, my headlight blows the fuses when turned on ,dip or main ,ok on side light ,a short obviously but just wondered if anyone else had this so maybe save some time and head to areas that are known for rubbing through
Cheers

Just take the whole fairing off (10 min job*) and track back the headlight wiring and connectors into the main loom (clips on to front subframe)

* put a towel on the front mudguard to rest fairing on so you you can disconnect the riding light etc.
