Yellow running lights problem

socwkbiker · 06-05-2011, 03:52 AM

I was taking a ride last night and noticed that 3 of my yellow running lights are out. The only one working is the front right one. The turn signals work too. I can't believe that the bulbs would burn out on all 3 at the same time.

Has anyone had this problem before? Any suggestions on what could be causing this?

If I'm not mistaken the rear are turn signals only not running lights.
So you only have one not working.

recumbentbob is correct unless you did some custom wiring on your own to make them all running lights.

I agree.......

Check the bulb, it sounds like it may be out.

socwkbiker · 06-05-2011, 02:11 PM

Thanks guys. I'll check the bulb

Well the first thing I'd do is check the front bulb before sending out a distress signal.

Hey when I first got my Nomad, I couldn't start it sssssssssoooo I came on our sight and asked why? I needed to put the kick stand in the upright position! Da! No one, not even TC gave me a hard time about it, its a learning process!

I think I'm getting a bad reputation around here. :(

He gives all newbies 1 free pass. After that, you're fair game.

The difference is Jeff has had his Nomad for years. He's hardly a newbie.

But I do have brain farts, which sends me back to newbie status. Those can be some massive farts!

Who is Jeff ???

Oh, for Pete's sake! (now don't ask me who Pete is). Jeff is SWB, the guy with the yellow lights problem who started this thread.
