Headlights no worky

Post by Deserteagle »

Started the bike this evening aroung 8pm and the headlights didn't come on automatically so I thought, no big deal I'll replace the bulbs.

However, the bulbs look ok!!!! *Start worrying* Maybe they look ok, but they're not, so I directly connect the bulb to the battery..... it works. Put it back in the socket, doesn't work.

So I am quite sure the problem is in the harness but don't know how to start with fixing it. Any other possible quick fixes/checks?

I will probably take it to the store on Monday if I can't fix it.

Thanks in advance.
