electrical help. Please
I have a 2009 street glide. I don't have any power in my headlight or lights fuse. My headlight relay is good. I checked it with meter. They are the only fuses out. Bike starts and runs. No headlight or running lights.

look at the fuse
if the fuse material is spattered and there is carbon inside- then you have a short circuit..examine the wiring
if the fuse material looks to have simply melted and sagged, then you have an overload like too high a wattage bulb(s) or other load ( which may include dirty switch contacts)
COMMON is left side controls pinching the wiring
broken fairing brace rubbing through wiring
fender light wire rubbed through on fender
rear lighting wiring chafed or rubbed through ( earlier models when lowered)
