Topic: no lights - fuse and filiments "look" good

[1974blaze]

so, i have been messing with this 1978 cb125s for a few weeks.  mixed results, but had it running ok. just ok.  but i had been messing with it while waiting on a battery, lots of kicks.  then, i get a battery and the lights, all of them, don't work.  horn works fine.  fuse appears ok, headlight appears ok? when i first got it and i gave it a kick, i think there was a flicker of light from the neutral/oil lights.  now nothing.  what did i do? what should i do now?

thanks. help.

I'm not certain but it seems to me that 1 of two things is going on.

Someone screwed with the wiring for the battery.

It's designed to run the lights off the engine not the battery.

I don't have a wiring diagram handy but it's probably the first one.

I'd start checking EVERYTHING with a circuit tester.

The one I got was a 6 volt bike and the PO hooked it up to 12 volts.  Burned every bulb and fuse out.  The only way to truly check these is with a multi meter.
