    '06 ABS

    Looked under the left inner panel and there's just 2 ABS and a headlight fuse.

    The non-ABS model has a fuse box on the right hand side.

    Just a bump. I don't have the manual with me.

    Lost Headlights, tail, brake and dash. Bike runs fine, checked both mains. I think I shorted the license plate lights trying to take them off. I assume they're on the tail light circuit. I found just one fuse, the headlight fuse. Couldn't check to see if it was burnt because I dropped the fucking thing somewhere behind the side fairing. Maybe all the lighting is on that fuse?

    I found a thread where the guy had the exact same symptoms- he said it was a fuse but didn't say which one.

    Randy said if you leave the HID highbeams on you can blow a fuse on start up. That wasn't the case.

    Thanks,
    Rob

    Well, the wiring diagram shows box A and box B. Box B is the one with the headlight and the 2 ABS. License light goes to A and that circuit feeds the brake light and dash. Now to find A. The book doesn't give a location. I'll try the right side but damn it, it's not very pleasant removing the cover. I'm going to put painters tape on the fairing so as not to scratch it. Wish me luck...

    Box A is under the right upper panel, where the blown taillight fuse was.

    Attaboy. Now you havetwo. I do know that your headlights and rear tail light fuse are separate. Was pulled over a few years ago on the freeway. I could see fine, but the police told me I have no tail lights at all. Scarey thought considering it was 03:00 and I was on my way to work. Rode the rest of the way with hazzard lights.
