There are two fuse locations and both have a fuse that is related to the audio system. The first one is on the left side of the bike behind what most people call the side cover or battery cover. I'm attaching a picture of it.

 

The second is inside the lower right cowling. It also has a fuse that will affect the audio system. I can't remember for sure but I think it is actually called a "backup fuse" or something. I'm attaching a picture of that location also.

 

If you have the owners manual, that is where I got this information. I have personally found the fuse in the lower cowling to be the problem on a couple of bikes.

You may have a problem with the "seating" of the multi pin connectors of the audio system inside the upper fairing, and not a fuse. If you find the fuses good, then split your front fairing. The audio system is just about in the center. One at a time, undo each connector, and spray some contact cleaner on each side of the connectors. Then, plug and unplug each side of the connector a few times to help the contact cleaner work. Before you connect for the final time, apply some dielectric grease to the connectors to keep moisture out. Do not get any of the grease on the metal pins or sockets.

 

 

Don, I tried to copy and paste my copy of the owner's manual for him but was unsuccessful. I was also going to include the page that lists which fuse is what...

Thanks for trying. It's probably too large to attach. It can be downloaded from the Tech Library by supporting members.

if using contact cleaner, you may want to hit the connectors with some compressed air to make sure the contact cleaner is dried or blown out since it is flammable...

Quick question, how do you keep the dielectric grease off of the pins or sockets? For many years I have just squirted it on the connectors. Will it damage them?

[bongobobny]

Probably not damage the connectors, the problem dielectric grease is an INSULATOR and if you get too much on the actual metal connections it will never electrically make contact. The whole idea of the grease is to keep moisture from getting inside where the actual electrical contacts are. You want to put a small bead where the two plastic connectors come together...

I've even used it on spark-plugs. It keeps the ceramic from bonding to the plug wire. At least it makes it easier to remove.

[bongobobny]

Yup!! and helps make them water resistant as well!!

Thought: I've never had a problem putting that grease on connectors and pins. I do separate and re-connect the connectors multiple times after cleaning treatment and after I grease them. So maybe I'm getting plenty of contact. My point is this does keep corrosion from ever getting to the pins.
