Oh man, no kidding, I'm wondering if this bike is jinxed now..
I was out tooling around the back roads this evening, trying to catch a cool breeze and on the back stretch of a winding road in the middle of no where..
POOF
No LIGHTS!! NO Nuttin!! Holy crap batman.. I tossed on the 4 way hazards right away and you'd be surprised how much light they'll toss in pitch dark of night.. Barely enough to get the bike stopped without hitting anything etc.. Dashlight out, headlight out, highway lights out.. Dunno about the rear lights, wasn't too curious at that time as you can well imagine. Signals and 4ways worked ok..
I didn't hit a bump, didn't touch anything and there, right in the middle of a turn, poof. Talk about a heart attack in the making.
All it turned out to be was a blown 15A fuse in the left side panel.. It was SO pitch dark I has to use the light of my cell phone to illuminate the work site lol.. literally so dark you couldn't see anything..
Ok, shyte happens once in a while but they all seem to be happening to me all at once.. the bike has over 46,000 miles on it, 2006 Midnight, just had the 4 coils and fuel pump replaced the other week..
How common is this fuze blowing? Is this something that happens on occasion or very rarely does it happen?
I swear.. this bike gets more and more interesting every day..
