    So last night I was leaving from work and noticed I head no head light for the next 25 miles. Not the bikes fault. When I first changed the oil I made a mental note to watch the wires that run between the filter housing and the chain front sprocket guard. The night before last night I changed my oil in a hurry and crimped the wire. In return it blew fuse#2 a 15 amp fuse. if your high and low beam go out with your horn and brake light this will be the problem. I do give Husqvarna props for putting the running lights, the emergency little light above the head light on a separate fuse or I would have had no lights. Although, the emergency light is barely manageable. I just rode behind another car for most of the ride luckily.

    Thanks for the heads up. Good stuff to know, both that that wire crimping can kill the lights, and that the little flashlight bulb is on a separate circuit.
