I have a 2014 SGS. The OEM License plate light is a LED sealed unit. Can't seem to locate it at Ronnies or boardtracker parts fiche. It is located within the rear Tribar assembly. This is a Can-bus chassis.
Appreciate if someone can get pointed in the right direction.
Thanks
I tried in the Rushmore forum with no responses.
The license plate light is not serviceable. Now, if you're one of those who can micro-solder and you're willing to try disassembling the unit, it's probably doable if you can find a suitable replacement LED.
Thanks. My problem is that the running lights work fine but the license LED light stopped. Am I correct in thinking that the power source is good to the assembly and just the LED unit went bad?. I don't completely understand how the Can-Bus distributes voltages .Hoping not to buy a complete assembly and find out that the power source is not there.
Thanks much!

This is from the wiring diagram for your bike. You can see there is a Facia/Converter Module that is in the circuit to the light bar. Don't ask me how you troubleshoot to see if there is or is not power coming from the module. That's way above my paygrade. Maybe the Touring Electrical Diagnostic Manual has that information. Unfortunately, I don't have that manual.
I'm not familiar with your bike, however as an engineer I firmly believe that what man has made he can repair - someone out there knows how to fix that darned thing for ya!
Changing the Tribar light might or might not fix your issue.
it goes Main Harness>>>tribar>>>bullet lights and plate light.
It could be the tribar, the harness to the plate light or the plate light.
You're in the same bind as me......I have a SG/RG rear set up with no brake lights.....I either have a bad rear harness, or tri bar.....I can't seem to hook up with anyone to let me use their bike to trouble shoot it.
