Blew a fuse

[Rocket-tre]

The clock had come loose, and I unscrewed the cover to tighten it. Took only 5 minutes.
But in the process I had appearantly toched something inside the clock causing the fuse to blow. And I wasn´t aware of it until I drove away, then I couldn´t get the neutral light to come on, and I thought about all the posts in this forum about readjusting the neutral switch and I cursed silently to my self.
But when I came to the first intersection I turned on the turn signals and they wouldn´t come on either, I realized that I must have blown a fuse.
And for You guys, that like me, haven´t read the manual there is a tiny tool in the fuse box (which in it´s turn is located under the saddle :wink: ) that helps pulling out the small fuses. Wouldn´t have managed with my fat fingers otherwise, that´s for sure!!! :-D
So, the lesson is: disengage the battery before tampering with the clock, it has power on even with ignition off!!! :razz:

I'm to scared to even look for the fuses,fortunately the bike is still under warranty, i dont even wanna pull the tank of at the moment.
Re neutral, no probs, but i have to double clutch it every time too even find first.
And as for fat fingers i'll let the missus answer that one!

And, after all that i dont have a clock but thanks anyway.

Hey Moosey, the fuses are under the seat.

Yes.., and the seat opens with ign.key in right side cover... :wink:

Actually I am glad it happend that way, I was in no hurry, nad I had time to figure it out under no stress and it wasn´t a fuse that took out all the functions. I could have ridden long without it.

It now feels a bit more secure knowing were to find them, and I bought a couple of extra fuses to carry with me.

Did your fuse box cover have that 2 cent rubber band around fuse box?

Yep! Both of ours had that weak rubber band. Honey's broke a long time ago. Think mine is still there.
