Default Hi everyone

I am Mark and new to this forum just joined up, I am hopping someone maybe able to help me with my 1993 CBR 1000F, went for a ride yesterday and when I return noticed my head light was out and my brake lights didn't work, checked the bulbs all good couldn't see any bad connections or broken ground wires, my hi beam works and my tail light works. I don't know where to look nexted.
Anybody have this problem before or any sugestions of where to look next. Hate to have to take it to a shop.
Thanks Mark

Hello venturehwy, sounds to me like it could either be a fuse (most likely) or a relay, imo. See if you can download a service manual HERE. That's a lot of bikes you got; looks like you've been riding for a while. Haven't tried riding in the snow yet though, that's pretty crazy.
Welcome to CBRF & good luck with the electrics

Default Lights Out

Thanks for your help, I did check all my fuse and there ok but not the relay. I think its located in front of the fuse box.
Much appreciated, I'll check it out.

Thanks Mark

Smile Lights out

Again everyone thanks!

Lights are on,pulled bike all apart checked wiring for power, check relays and rechecked light bulbs, head lights both bulbs blew and couldn't see the filiment blown, rear brake lights both bulbs looked fine but threw new bulbs in anyway and they worked as well go figure, anyway better clean my eyes before I look anywhere next time, good thing we enjoy doing this.

Markon the road again with my CBR the harleys nice as well but it's a tactor.
