Lights and RPM gauge quit working

[czach]

my RPM guage and Headlight quit working, my Tether light still works though when my tether is not on correctly. Any ideas on where to start first? All connections look good, I looked over all of the wiring and I cant find any thing wrong, could it be as easy as the head lights burnt out?

Try new accessory relay ,it's above the clutch. Cost 5-10 bucks. HV

Yep, probably just the relay. Little square thing plugged in and zip-tied above/behind the sec. clutch.

the relays didn't start coming on the sleds until 03. I verified that with dealer. anything else to look at? I have no lights, only the blinking light when my tether is not on right.

Did you find the fix ?

Yes, it was the Stator, the stator has 2 parts of it, the Lighting winding for lights and Ignition winding for ignition. The lighting winding was burnt on mine. Replaced it and the Voltage Regulator as well as all the burnt out lights and works great now.

Thanks czah you called it right. Found a broken wire on the stator great call saved me a lot of time.
