Default 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.

Have you done anything to the bike recently? May give an idea of where to start looking.

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)
