There are 2 fuses under the right side cover, also more relays under the left side cover.
What are you looking for?
just picked the bike up. He had a cd/radio installed and it seems to be completely dead. Figured maybe the fuse went?
i thought I read the fuse were behind the headlight?
thanks for the help
Your bike is a sort of interim model, with a combination of fuses and a 50Amp thermal circuit breaker. Earlier bikes than yours have mostly circuit breakers.
What is completely dead, just the new radio, or the whole bike?

just the radio.
Im really new to the FL world. I did rebuild the carb and got the old bike running really well, and now this happened. I don't want to start pulling headlights or whatever until I know how to proceed, and am getting different messages on exactly where the fuse would be, and if it's the fuse at all? Never had a radio on a bike before.
Thanks for any help
It is quite likely the fuse for the radio is inside the fairing. Others in here can hopefully guide you in gaining access to it. This is an opportunity for you to get yourself the correct factory service manual, which will empower you with such info, at your finger tips! They are available at your local dealer. You will find it a valuable source of service and diagnosis info the longer you own your bike.
All I want to know is where is the fuse that may have blown, for the radio located? Maybe there isn't a simple answer? Behind headlight, side covers, inside fairing??
We need a fellow FLHT owner to answer those queries. Behind the headlights IMHO means inside the fairing, in other words the same thing. Getting at the radio requires partly dismantling the fairing. Check behind your side cover to see if the fuses are identified. You can see what that may involve by checking an on-line parts website.
