Brake Lights and Turn Signals Dead-other electronics fine?

Post by Btjohns »

Hello and thanks for adding me. I have a 2016 Forza ABS and was working on installing a supplemental brake light yesterday, when I thought (perhaps imagined) a click sound when I powered the unit with the wires crossed. Now the brake and turn signal lights are not working. I attempted to SPLICE into the black and green/yellow wires in the rear section near the wires for the brake lights. I've checked the TWO (2) fuse boxes I know exist (under seat by the battery and in right glove compartment) and all fuses are in good order-visually and with my multi-meter. So I'm puzzled as to what might be the cause? Relay issue? Thanks for any thoughts.

You say you crossed something and heard a click.. Its a fuse .. Check again and replace the appropriate fuse with a new one.

I have done that a few times as well. No big deal. The bike should have some spare fuses in the fuse box.
