Thanks, squidley, sleeper and brad. I notice a couple of references to battery. Is the whole system that delicate that a low battery would kill all these auxilliary systems? ( I DID leave my radio on and flatten the battery last year......but, I've been out many times since then.) As I recall on my second to last ride last Fall, the passing lamps being intermittent was the first of my multiple electrical failures; then the speedo started appearing/disappearing....then the signals. It was a bizarre mix that prompted me to put the beast in the garage way too prematurely. Now I'm at the point where I'm not too enthused about trying to get it out. The rain doesn't help, of course, and I hate to sound like a whiner.....but, there's nothing worse than having electricals....unless of course it carburation!!! OK, no more crying....I'm heading out to the shop to tackle this sum*****. Brad, I'm in St. Catharines.....the banana, er rather the grape belt! I'll get back to you guys as I progress.......or start going psycho!!

This is about the worst electrics problem I've ever seen. No lights, signals, gas guage, speedo..........NOTHING on my 2003 Midnight Venture. Any ideas where to start looking? The manual (the cheapy little user one, not the shop jobby) refers to three fuse boxes: the "main" one, number 1.....and number 2. Are there really 3? Should I be checking fuses......or go straight to looking for burned/disconnected wires? The previous owners DID do a fair bit of fooling around: passing lights...LED's...alarm.....etc. Any thoughts GREATLY appreciated! Mike
