99, 1200 Sporty, >9000miles. Gauges, turn signals, seem to have lost electricity. After restarting the bike functioned fine. Is this a fuse issue or potentially a wire harness problem.

Often times the easiest answer is the best. make sure the battery connections are tight and free of corrosion.

2003 Honda Civic Dash Gauges Dead!

There could be a few potential causes for the dash gauges not working on your 2003 Honda Civic. Here are a few things to check:

1. Check the battery connections: Make sure the battery terminals are clean and tight. Loose or corroded connections can cause electrical issues.
2. Check the ground connections: Make sure the ground connections for the dash gauges are clean and tight. A bad ground connection can cause electrical issues.
3. Check the voltage regulator: The voltage regulator is responsible for regulating the voltage to the gauges. If it's faulty, it can cause the gauges to stop working.
4. Check the instrument cluster: It's possible that there's an issue with the instrument cluster itself. You may need to have it inspected by a mechanic.
5. Check for a blown fuse: Although you've checked the fuses already, it's possible that one of them has blown. Double-check the fuse for the instrument cluster to make sure it's not the issue.

If none of these solutions work, it's best to have a professional mechanic diagnose and repair the issue. They will be able to use specialized tools and equipment to identify the problem and find a solution.

2009 Chevy Aveo. All my gauges stop working after changing the battery?

Did it start after you changed the battery? Normally you need to reset the security system and immobilizer.

Not having gauges seems to be a known issue,

2000 dodge 2500 diesel 5.9 automatic ac compressor doesnt turn on

ac systems require a certain pressure to function at 15 years you more likely have lost pressure. you will have to hook up ac gauges to see whats up , if you have sufficient pressure then you can look for electrical issues , clutch, pressure switch, fuses,relays etc.

2007 fatboy lost the 'flashing' of turn signals (but they still light up), lost horn, lost rear break light. All fuses in the fusebox are OK. I also lost all gauges (speedo, neutral indicator,...

Your turn signals (but not your running lights), horn and a few other things are on the "accessories" fuse in your electrical circuit, I think. If the fuse is not blown, I would guess that you have a bad connection in the power lead for that circuit. I'm not sure of what I'm going to say here because I don't work on the newer bikes but in the older bikes, the "orange" colored wires carried the battery voltage to the individual components much like "red" wires used to do in most DC circuits. I'd look for a bad connection in a plug somewhere. I hope this helps but like I said, I don't know a lot about the newer bikes. I mostly work on the older bikes that the dealers will not work on any longer.

Good Luck

1983 Honda CB550 Electrical Issue

sounds like a poor ground issue, pull out the headlight and check all connections in there, your turn signals are on seperate feeds than the lights but they will probably share the same ground/earth in the headlight
