Default 2012 passing lamps and switch

Hi there, just fired up the beast for the first time this year, and I noticed my passing lamps will not turn on. Also the lamp switch does not illuminate, nor any other button on there, Ie cruise. Any thoughts???
Also the ABS light keeps flashing. have not ridden it yet this, still too much ice in the back lane.
Thanks for any info.

My ABS flashes until I hit the brakes a time or two. I would check the fuse for the passing lamps.

Be Safe JIM

ABS will flash until you reach 3 mph. Is your high beam on, passing lamps are powered by the low beam.

If your headlight is working then there should be power to the switch. Once you find your meter check that first If no power maybe one of the connectors is loose.
If power is present check your ground.
Good Luck
