Question about 2000 Harley Davidson FXST Softail Standard

3 running lights not working. Turn signals work fine.

My running lights were working yesterday. Today 3 of them do not. The only one that works is the front right. All of the turn signals work, as do the headlight and tail/brake lights. It also has highway lights installed on the crash bars. They also work fine. 2000 softail standard. Any help would be very appreciated. Thank you.

Bulb fixed the front left. The rear running lights however are still not working right. Still have turn signals, just no running lights on both rear.

SOURCE: lights, turn signals, horn don't work

Look for a bad ground connection inside the headlight shell (or possibly elsewhere). The other thing that all of the items you mention that are working intermittently have in common is the ignition switch. With the switch 'on', check for battery voltage at the fuses for the headlight, turn signals, horn, etc. No voltage at the fuses likely means a bad ignition switch.

The light unit has to be grounded.When you rewired did you forget to reattach the ground wire?Turn the lights on and hit the brake,what does the tail light do? If it goes dim or off you have a bad ground.It worked before the new rear light,right?Check for compromised ground.

My turn signals won't blink or work

1) Blown bulbs sometimes cause this.

2) Check the fuse & blinker relay. Some bikes have different fuses for marker & blinking, even though they're in the same lamp.

3) It could be a wiring fault; these symptoms will happen when anything stops the rear signals from working. Try hooking them up to a battery, without the switch in the circuit, and through the chassis, then fix ground issues first. Work your back on the positive side until you get to the switch. It is definitely not the switch, because the switch is switching, so it's from the switch back to the lights somewhere. It's actually not that hard to trac, if you have a wiring diagram.

Hey I literally just today had the same problem, put a new bulb in the light was on but did not blink!!!! SUPER EASY SOLUTION, you simply have the bulb in too far. I gently pulled mine out a tiny bit and it started working fine... guarantee that's all that's happening to you!!!

just look for the blackened/burned pin on the rear light plastic connector and sand it down to re-establish a good electrical connection and save yourself $800 big ones on replacing the multiswitch.

Brand new yamaha xt 250, ( just bought it today ) left turn indicator is burning for no reason. (not using turn signal, its just staying on) Is there an easy way to tell whats going on?

Your bike has running lights...in other words both front signal flashers should be on, but dimmer than when you use turn signals..So the issue is not why the left side is on but rather why why the right side is not lit also.
If you remove the right side bulb...you will see it has 2 filaments....one for running light, one for turn signal. Check the bulb. Try swapping the left and right bulbs and see if the right side now works...if it still doesn't...have the wiring connector checked. Does the turn signal work fine on the right side...this proves the ground is fine.
The bulbs on the back are turn signal only, and use a single filament bulb.
Since it is a new machine your dealer should address the problem free I would think.

Is it possible that there is leak that could be causing a short circuit? Possibly behind the fuse box? Just an idea, good luck.

1998 Lincoln Town Car: No turn signals, 4 way flash, brake lights

If only your brake light in middle of rear window works then your other bulbs are bad. If brake lights all work in the back than bulbs are good. If you put turn signal on right or left and the bulbs light in front and back then you need to change multifunction light control box under dash. My understanding is it cost $600 new. So I would try used.

Right signal and brake light

Looks like the problem is in the turn signal switch. This is a common problem. When the turn signal switch goes bad it will cause problems as mentioned above by you. Replace the turn signal mechanism.
