I'll have to get mine sorted soon, must get it done before the TT, fingers crossed its just blown bulbs, the bike is over 15 years old so its reasonable to think they could have blown one by one in 15 years

took the screen off today to have a look, tested one of the bulbs and its fine, put a multimeter on the bulb cap and theres no volts going to the blub cap.

I then followed the wiring, it goes under the tank through a connector which looks ok, and there around the frame towards the battery area under the riders seat.

All the fuses are ok, and the wiring/connections look fine so I am puzzled, but I still have to take the rear plastics off and see where the wiring ends up

Pull all the corresponding connectors blocks apart and check for voltage along each length of loom, alternatively use the multi meter on ohms (resistance) you`ll soon pick up where the circuit goes `open`. Obviously, do that with the ignition OFF :wink:
