    GS1100ES Dash Light not working

    Hopefully it is just a bulb but does anyone know where it is and how to get to it?

      It's dark. How ever many there are, none are working.

        The O/G (SIGNAL) powers most all of them.

          Ha, my dash lights up like a Christmas tree! First the tail lamp comes on, then after a bit the battery light, and after a few 260kph back road pulls, the battery light comes on...

          Good thing is, next day when I go for a ride, they're all out and the sequence starts all over again! lol

            I guess I could have been more clear.

            My warning lights all work properly. The lights that light up the dash so that it can be seen in the dark are the ones that are not working. It looks like the unit has to be disassembled from the back to access them.

                Found the wire to the dash lighting had been cut. Dash light work fine now.

                    It was grey. It runs down the main wiring harness.

                      The O/G enters the right handlebar switch connector and emerges as the grey wire to power the dash lights .
