Hi guys, I have a 2001 929 with 10000 miles on it. The other day the headlights stoped working, the highbeams also do not work. So I checked the fuse and its ok. All the wires look to be ok, I have the front nose peice off with all the wires exposed. There seems to be power going to the connector up front, and the blinkers still work. When I turn on the bike the relays do not click, could this be the problem? Thanks in advance for your help.

Seems strange that both relays (or bulbs) would fail (hi and low beams) at the same time. Did you change out the fuse or just visually inspect. It may be bad, but still look good.

I did change the fuse with a spare fuse. Is there a way to check relays.

you could have had a voltage spike and burned out the bulbs, but not likely. for that matter you could have tosted the relays.
