No running lights. was created by Eddyv54
Hello.
Info: 1978 Kz650 B2
Bike runs great.

I have no running lights. That is to say, the headlight and the tail light don't do anything when switching to lights-> on. I have a brake light, and I have a Park Light, but not running lights.

Now, I'm not sure if I need a complete circuit in the front (switched out the turn front turn signals to single filliment turn signals).

I also switched out the fuse box to blade fuses. All fuses intact. Checked circuit completeness with a meter, however it could be a wire that was not all the way inserted in the new housing? Does one of the two 10amp fuses control the running lights?

I can ride the bike around, the turn signals work, but no headlight/tail light.

I had a working lights BEFORE I switched to a chrome bucket. I had an ugly fairing on there which was taken off.

I'm sure it's something small that I missed. Are the blue running lights supposed to be a complete circuit somewhere?

Thanks.
