hi, 2008 super 8 125 headlight / indicator problem
« on: June 07, 2011, 02:43:49 PM »
i took this little scoot in px the other day


the indicators work but the fronts are very dim the rear as they should be, if i click on the lights to the first or second stage the click like mad from the little relay box and do not work, occasionally ive seen the headlight kind of flash.

with indicators off if i click the first setting on lights the two small lights come on, onto the next setting the two small go off and the main one onleft (if your sat on bike) only comes on if bikes running, are both of them supposed to work?


so far ive checked fuses by battery, removed the speedo and checked all plugs under there, took the front top panel off and checked all plugs there ie just quick unplug and visual inspection


were ar the earth points on these bikes?


any pointers???? could it be the indicator/ main beam switch assembly?

thanks

when i say they click like mad i mean with indicators on if i turn on lights the indicator relay clicks a lot faster



so i have dim front indicators
they stop working when turn on headlight and the relay clicks fast

i want to know should both front lights work as i only have the left working, yes i know could be a bulb


i seem to of found a few posts about bypassing the light relay would this help atall?

my feeelings is i may have an earth point issue etc as i have seen the headlight flash with the fast ind relay going occasionally
