Hi everyone,
Have a bit of an issue with my tail lights not working due to a short that keeps blowing up fuse number 6 (lights and instruments 10 amp).
All the rest works, indicators and front all good.
I took the seat and tail off and with the help of a friend, a multi-meter and a few 10A fuses, we managed to narrow the problem to a socket and harness that connects to the rear lights harness.
Basically there is current passing inside the socket and if we take two opposite pins out it still passes, so in our opinion, either there is a short in the harness or there is "something else" causing this.
Here are some pics and hope anyone could help as the HD Dealer "only" takes £99/hour
They say however that an electrical problem is usually diagnosed between 1 - 2 hours, so that's alright I guess
Thanks in advance :nerd:
