I have a problem with the tail light, brake light and speedo light not working
I just had the same thing happen just as I was pulling out of the driveway.
I think it may be because the license plate light burned out.
The only things different than what Lawman described is that the tail light didn't work at all, in any key position and the front running lights don't work.
I checked the tail light bulbs, both OK. Then checked the license plate light and it's not so fine.
A little late to get another now, so I'll find out tomorrow for sure.
Hopefully that's all it is.
 
Well, I'm sure I checked the fuse 3 times !! :BLAM:
But that's what my problem was.
It wasn't until I took the gastank off again to check all the wires and then I looked at the fuse a 4th time and it was noticably blown !!??

Well, put about 100 mi. on tonight and everythings fine !!
I changed out the old ACCT springs with the TOC springs I got from EmptyPocketsad and things are much quieter now !!
Easy DIY fix.
But can someone tell me why some suggest to be sure the pistons are at TDC when changing the springs ?
