Default tailight and blinker troubles

I'm new to the sportbike world.. and I have a 99 cbr f4 but it's tailight doesn't work (brake light and rear blinkers do however) and also the front blinkers don't turn on and I've checked the wiring and bulbs.. but that's not it. I checked the fuse box by the battery under the seat. but all of those are undamaged. does anyone know off the top of their head of any more fuses.. or things I need to connect? I'm lost.. and I hate to ride without visibility. thanks, -Jayce-

Default RE: tailight and blinker troubles

Sounds like you checked everything I can think of... I'd have to set down with a test light or multi meter and see what's wrong. I just did this for a guy that "knew he wired the lights up right". He used both 12v leads (signal and running) when he hooked up his front flush mounts. That caused all four turn signals to stay on and melted his rear signals from the heat.

All I'm saying is... we all make mistakes. Have someone take a look and give you a second opinion. Also... I've had fuses blow before and look good. Did you check them or just look at them?
