Tail light problems
« on: 23 October 2016, 04:18:01 pm »
Hi, wondering if anyone can help. I have a 2002 FZS 1000, was out in the rain yesterday (if it makes a difference) when I wiped it off and put away noticed a tail light bulb gone. Got bulb this morning and replaced it (fiddly bloody job, not easy for my sausage fingers) now I have both light bulbs on but brake light stays on too so very bright tail light! Occasionally the lights flicker on and off. Is this an earthing problem, where is the earth for the lights? Many thanks
