I've noticed that the above does not work on my 04 TBS, did it ever work is the question?
It can't be the fuse cos one fuse runs all the headlights & they work ok.
anyone got an 04 TBS that can tell me, I do use it quite a lot, no wonder other drivers have been ignoring me!!!

Mine on my Adventurer worked when I bought my bike,but then shortly after did not. My wifes Legend has worked since day 1 and has had no trouble with it. I believe the contacts in the switch is the problem becauce I can grind on the switch and they work.........just never took the time to fix it. Hope this helps !!

I've never had a problem with mine.

It soulnds like the contacts of the switch are not making connection. You may need to take apart the switch and clean it.

as its still under warranty I'll let the dealer sort it sometime, knowing my luck it'll all collapse if I strip it down, mechanical I don't mind but switchgear is a no, no...
