2021 v9 bobber front right indicator burnt out on a ride. Parked up to have a walk and my mate said your lights burnt out and melted the lens and interior case. Came back ordered new indicator replaced it.
Just Pulled out, after not using for 6 weeks to put on ramp to do a service, and light had melted the lens. But was not on. Took apart touched bulb and bulb came on. Ignition not on. Started the bike, used the indicator switch and worked fine. It blinked and turned off fine. Then Shut off the ignition.
All stayed off then right bulb came on again, as I tried to reassemble. Used test light attached to ground wire, touching the live inside bulb holder, it lite up. (Had a similar issue with my v7 kept blowing the 5 amp fuse…was a short in the instrument cluster).
Faulty ground on FR indicator only? Open to thoughts. Also need to find the wiring schematic as did not get is, bought second hand did not even have owners manual.
Cheers and all the best
