F1 light flash- running light dim- no turn sig- radio dead- no turn over- rec light f
I do not consider myself an ace mechanic but i figure i am about as Ok as most folks and my ELECTRONIC (NOT ELECTRICAL) experience is better than the average bear. but this has gotten me at wits end as none of it makes sense & the honda wireing schematics are a mess.
Going from Bad (minor issue) to WORSE (real bag of worms).
Doing some deep main and cleaning of my 2005 Gl1800 with the main cleaning in removing radiators & fans, blowing out the antifreeze and installing an in line honest to goodness temp sending and a temp gauge for a more accurate reading of the water temp
Before I started the bike ran fine and there was NO known issues.
Taking everything apart was no major problem other than just time needed. Installing the sensor and all that was straight forward. NO antifreeze / coolant is on the bike at this point! JUST prior to putting on the center cowling (radio cover) I decided to make sure that all of the lights etc worked.
Ignition to ON ---- (*()*(^&$ Turn signals- brake lights do not work BUT the headlights and running lights do)..Double- triple checked any connection I had disconnected ( I taped the connectors when I disconnected them) all was good. Went to fuse panel.. #21 a 15amp fuse for the audio/ accessories was blown... @ replaced fuse.
ALL headlights- flashers- brake lights etc etc work!!!
Connected up the plugs and wiring for the radio and the hazard- fog light box and bolted down the console. One last double check of lights – turn signals and radio before calling it a day.
Ignition on! Radio came on for 10 seconds and then went off, headlights extremely DIM- NO brake lights-NO turn signal lights- NO flashers . F1 light comes on & then goes off when ignition is turned on, rev light may or may not flash even though its NOT in rev, “BATTERY IS FULLY CHARGED” N light does not come on nor does engine even turn over with clutch in & start button is hit. WTF. ALL fuses have been double checked- Fuses even associated have been changed just in case.
Even w center console removed, turn sig disconnected and all connectors for tight and no piched wires not crimped wires... Its the same! Din lights F1 flask ONE time ( long I guess as it has never come on EVER before today) no brake lights...... SOMEthing is BEFORE the center console.
