Topic: Headlight stopped working

[drainyoo]

So I fixed all the obvious issues on the bike and now out of nowhere the headlight is freaking out on me. It will work fine all day then all of sudden stop working. Then it will come back on the next day. It acts very weird. When it isnt working it sometimes goes on for a second when Im starting the bike and it seems like the battery dies for the second.

Not sure what this is. Any idea?

check all your fuses, and the holders
   {nice clean+tight}
    if fuse looks iffy replace it    clean Hi-lo switch contacts
    on handlebar, then check  connections to
    headlight,{behind headlight } and to the start/run/lights, relay next to battery
       Does tailight go out too?
             Hope it helps

Thanks Bruce.

No just the headlight, all the other lights work perfectly. Where do I find the fuses? Ive looked and cant seem to find em.

     If you don't have a manual,
      I would go to the
         Oldmanhonda.com website,
       and pull up the electrical diagram for it.
            That one could be behnd the light.
               Hope it helps

Well I installed clubmans and by having to disconnect and reconnect the wires it seems to have fixed the problem. Guess it was just a loose wire.

Thanks.
