    I need a hand boys.

    Something's going on. She primes, she fires, she runs. lovely.

    I managed to get home because I'm running silverstars in the low beams, and switched the hi beams over and turned them on, but seriously.

    I've lost my lowbeam running lights, and my rear running lights. Brights, signals, and brake light actuation are all fully functional. front and rear brakes verified.

    What the actual fuck is going on? I know someone has seen this foolishness before.

    Looks like the indicator lights are on fuse E and the headlights are on Fuse F so I don't think it's blown fuses. It could just be burned out bulbs. If so, You might check voltage at high rev and make sure the regulator isn't putting out too many volts and burning out bulbs. (And doing other damage)

    I've checked a number of different bulbs.

    LMAO.

    so I was so sure the 2-3 bulbs I checked HAD to be good...

    they're all blown on the running light side. *facepalm* Now to see if I can sort this headlight issue.

    Which is to say I picked up some bulbs at advance, and they worked just fine

    Ok so now I'm tipping the reason those globes were all blown, possible overcharging? better do the "drill"
