Default Fuses
Was having issues with my radio working sometimes on and off. Cycled the ignition switch on and off to get it to come on. Had the saddle bags off for cleaning the bike and decided to check the fuses and noticed that the radio fuse was like half in and half out of the fuse block. Have ordered dialectic grease and going to clean up all the fuses. Just a heads up.

No one has been in the fuses and the radio has been working fine the entire time I have owned the bike which has 10,000+ miles. Got my dialectic grease today and all the fuses are greased and ready to go.

Not worried about the grease attracting all the dirt and dust?

Any time you add grease or oil somewhere, you've created another maintenance point.

The fuses are under one of the side covers inside of a water tight enclosure.
