Default Headlight out

I have a 2000 1200 Sporster.

The headlight is not working. I replaced the bulb but its still not working. OHM's give me 0 in the headlight assembly.

I took off the fuse panel but I don't see any fuses in there. Or I don't know how to open it to see any. I looked on a few other places and some seem to indicate that I might not have fuses?

The bike starts and signal lights work. Thanks.

This may or may not help...
If your signals are working I dont think it would be the fuse..

I found the fuses....they slide out of the casing but were so tightly in there I had to use WD40 to get them out. Fuse was blown, replaced, all is working now. Thanks.
