Hi guys urgent help needed. I have a 2007 REClassic(350). The rear indicators did not seem to work properly, but then I seemed to solve it. However after putting back on the left hand tool box, a spark happened on one of the wires and the 20A fuse blew. I replaced the fuse but now I have no indicators (front and rear) or rear light. The bike starts the headlight and horn works. Please can someone help I really love this bike but I am at my wits end.

Cheers. Mike

If a wire sparked and a 20 amp fuse blew you need to sort that out first.

Hi, your bike has two fuses -one in the toolbox and another in the wiring under the saddle.You may have blown both.

check the cable that runs from under the seat to the rear lamp, they seem to wear through and give just this problem. It may be hard to find; one easy check is to unplug it under the seat then replace all the blown fuses. if the fuses stay intact and everything works bu the rear lights you are on your way to resolving.
