light problem

i got a little problem with my ice 125, the thing is the lights only work when i hold in the brake, i think it might be something to do with me trying to wire up switch gears but as soon as i pull the brake in the lights work perfectly except the flash. the horn and indicators work fine. just the main light dont. any one know what it could be??

only wired up the left hand switch gear. and wasnt to sure if i done the high/low beam one right.

thanks

 

if i understand what u mean coreectly then one of the light filaments may nave gone. there is two in your rear light. 1 is the light and the other iss your brake light

 

fuse may be blown or out of place. check that buddy.

 

try some fresh bulbs or check the connections if there loose or somefin

 

bulbs and fuses are fine. the headlight only works when i hold the brake in, if you thought i was only talking about the rear light.

 

checked your earth?
Have you had to wire the actualli clips together for the switchgear? sounds like you may have wired a colour to the wrong one. But check your earth, all connections aswell, follow the wires back,all of them untill you can find a fault, if no faults are visible then its time to dig deeper.
But im pretty sure it is a loom problem mate

 

havent checked it but the earths was ok when i put it all back together

 

yr

had this problem be with a coverstion wen u pull rakes in the front light went on u need 2 strip your bike my shore every wire is in the right place something u mut hav pluged in wrong

 

well im going to take the bike apart tomorrow to try sort it out.

anyone know what it could be or what to look for?

ben

 

The circuit must be broken(not literally) but the light only comes on when the circuit is completed(when the brake light switch is activated by pulling in the leaver)
so just strip it and make sure everything is where is should be.
are u sure it aint a fucked loom?

 

well the head light aint working at all now :msn1: and my new front indys dont work just payed £10 for them to not work. looks like everythings coming off the bike tomorrow. maybe even a little spray imp:

 

make sure ur battery is fully charged and working. Check the regulator for a burt or burning smell, check all fuses are in there and correct ones are there and also ur relays. can onli be something minor

 

the first regulater i had burnt out. so i got a new one and lights was working with the brake on lol. do you think it could of burnt out the new one for some reason?

 

it might have done. check it again. do you check all the earths and that already?

 

ill check the reg tomorrow but wouldnt that cause the indy's to stop working or am i being retarded?

the earths seem fine to me :wtf:

 

Naaa it would ben, trust me. Thats how my 125 started. No indys, no lights, then the fucka wouldnt start. Check everything tomorow an see wat comes up

 

well today i was going to look at the bike after i got back from the compound and it wasnt starting :wtf: so i took the ht lead to the frame to see if it sparked and it only sparks sometimes i thing it could be dodgy hd lead or coil. i dont know ????

some one help me with my new problem pleasee
