Lights cut out
« on: January 12, 2016, 04:39:04 PM »

Hi Guys;

I was riding home last night and had the entire lighting system cut out on my Zero - no main beam, no indicators, no dash lighting, and I'm assuming no rear light. Was pretty terrifying as it was pitch black on a busy dual carriageway. After about a minute or so they blinked on, then blinked off. Another minute on then off, and finally  back on. Each time they come on the ABS light was blinking. To my untrained eye, it was almost as if the 12v system had rebooted?

It's coming up for it's first service, so I'll mention it to the guys at street bike, but was curious if anyone else has seen this?

Cheers;

Mike

Check the fuse for the DC-DC converter.
I once ages ago had a main cable hit it after hitting a bump in the road which knocked the fuse out of position, I cable tied the cable out of the way and the problem never occurred again.
