Hey everyone I'm new to the cbr world and am having a little trouble with my headlight. I have ohmed out the wires and they have good continiunity and there is voltage in the circuit however the headlight still will not come on. everything else on the clutch side of the bars like turn signals and the horn work just fine and all the fuses are good. the bulb is new just purchased two days ago if you have any idea of whats wrong with my bike or suggestions on what to look at it would be greatly appricated. thanks

 

Perhaps your headlight switch is naff?

 

what dose naff mean? im new to the whole forum thing if you could explain that would be greatly appricated.

 

Hi,

There's several definitions for "naff" and here are some of them :

Urban Dictionary: Naff

What Fryup2000 is try to say is it' s broken,faulty,non working


If the switch is broken then there will be no circuit so that and the bulb are usually the first place to start.

I would check these first and take to a local shop or friend with experience if you can't work it out.

 

you might be out of blinker fluid.

 

is there any way someone can post a good wiring diagram? I work on cars for a living and should be able to figure this out if I have all the right tools for the job. thanks for all the advice so far the switch checked out good from what I know however I cant be for sure with out a goo diagram to go off of.

 

lol or my muffler bearings are bad

 

problem is fixed thanks for all the advice in the end i just hard wired it to the battery and put a fuse in on the wire to keep from draining the battery

 

well I can give you a pic of a wiring diagram if you still want it, hell I have a link to download the service manual as well.
