Default Faulty neutral light
Hi Guys,
Any ideas what might be preventing the neutral light illuminating, I checked the terminals on top of the trns and all seems ok, neutral is engaging fine just no light...???
Cheers

TBH no, but im figuring I will need to remove the fairing to get to it (FLHX) so was hoping there might be something as or more likely to have failed elsewhere?

fairing takes less than 5 min to remove...then just check the bulb. start with the easiest possible issue first
