Intermittent headlight and running lights and dashlights.

Post by Relics »

My lights work when they want to. They are fine for extended periods; then when you turn switch off they will not come back on. Then will just pop on at any time. Dash lights and running lights don't work either. Maybe its a relay. Maybe reserve lighting or something. Any help appreciated.

I hate to beat a dead horse but for the sake of it try wiggling the wiring bundle coming from the ignition down the left side of the frame under the fake tank. If you've checked it already I apologize but some of the tie-wraps/wire-ties from the factory were too tight causing broken wires internally. For me it was a total loss of power, for some not quite as severe but none the less power issues which were intermittent.

Good luck!
