Headlight Dilemma
I'm having a problem with my "06" 14's Headlights. They won't come on. A couple weeks ago they started coming on for about 30 mins or so, then the would go off and come back on, back and forth. Durin the time that they would go off, the turn signals on the dash would be lite on solid green (suppose to be off) and something would be making a buzzing sound around the front dash area. Now the Headlights don't come on at all and there is no more buzzing sound. The tail and brake lights work fine. The only thing is the blinkers, blink fast. Anyone know what this could possibly be in ref to the Headlights?

Has to be a head light relay .. Check on top of the ECU , there is a relay pack right on top of the ECU ..

Smoke, I was thinking the same thing but being that I have never had any relay issues in the 30 years I been riding, I wasn't sure. This bike has several relays. I have a 14 service manual and they mentioned that there are 2 small relays that go to the headlights that are in the front underneath the black inner fairings, on each side. There is also a relay in the rear by the ECU that u mentioned. I believe that controls the tail section. The manual tells you how to test them. I will get them tested this week. Thanks Smoke!
