Nevermind. Found the fuse box.. Fuse looked good.. Put meter on it. Jiggled wires under tank and headlight came on.. There's a loose wire somewhere.. :( its working now so not looking forward to chasing it around

I think I would chase down the loose connection for that headlight. Otherwise you may be riding along on a curvy dark road when the light goes out. Even if you can switch to the other beam quickly, this experience is not one you will want to repeat. Ed

Chased it down. Loose connector under tank that jiggled on and off Jen it felt like it.. Now the healmdlight/brights work and now my bright indicator doesn't:( always something:)
