    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I recently just got my bike fired up for the first time. My fuel guage said full when it was empty so I figured when I cleaned the tank I put the sending unit back in wrong. But now I have lost the lights for gear selection and the turn signals will not work. Any ideas?
 
Hi,

Start checking and cleaning connections. Have a look at the wiring diagram to determine which wires feed those circuits. Is it possible that you have your fuel gauge send unit plugged in backwards? There is a fuel gauge send unit service/repair tutorial on my little website.

(Please pardon my profound glimpse into the obvious.) :p


Thank you for your indulgence,

BassCliff

I had a similar issue... it turned out to be burnt out lights... Have you checked the lamps themselves?
 
Thanks Basscliff, I'll start cleaning and checking the connections. razor02097 - the wierd thing is they were all working. Took a first ride and a few days later noticed they were not lit up. So I doubt its the lamps. Some kind of wiring thing probably. Are those lights all on the same fuse?
 
Yup same here. When I first got the bike the light worked but it just stopped working one day... I thought the worst. Luckily it was just the lamp.
