Headlight won't come on

The bulb is good. The fuses are good. The bike was sitting for 30 days. Before the bulb worked fine, now, nada.

The wiring diagram shoes the female plug goes to the HDLP Switch and FRT Micro Brake Switch. All the connectors are connected.

Don't know what else to look for?

Any suggestions?

Dead low beam and high beam?

Sorry for the delay. Yup both are dead. I checked the connectors and nothing seems melted. The battery is running at 14.5 right now.

In the middle of moving from one Island to the next.

Thanks CR.

just throwing this out there.. I had a relay that would not close all the time.. I took the cover off and had a test light and a volt meter..hum scratched my head cause all seemed good. I tapd on the relays and my fuel pump came on..hum..I looked for a bad connection and never found one..to this day I dont know if it was the relay internal or a connection..but its been golden since..check your relays..now I dont know if that circuit goes thru relays but thats what i found for the fuel pump..good luck and let us know..thumb up

Thanks. I just had the dealership check the relay, and it is good. You taped or tapped on the relays? Any case I am at a loss right now?:confused:

PH, it's only a couple screws to take the left switch assembly apart so I would read that out through the switch before back tracking the harness as well as check ground on the connector that it is grounded to the bike afterwards. Keep us posted,

This is probably too simple but...
I have an '04 TC, and the low beam went out, so I bought a new lamp. When I went to change it, I noticed a wire to the connector the lamp plugs into was loose. They don't show this part on the Victory microfische, and the O'reilly's in town didn't have anything like it, so I put a wooden shim in the connector and so far, the problems solved.
I'd check if you have current to all the wires, then check if power is coming out of the connector.
Like I said, probably too simple, but easy to check.
Sucks that Victory doesn't sell this part. Makes me wonder what else they don't sell for my model.
Good luck!
