A loose wire connection to the spark plug could cause it to misfire, which can lead to a loss of power and poor engine performance. However, it is unlikely to be related to the fuse issue you described. It's more likely that there is a short circuit or another electrical issue causing the fuse to blow. You may want to check the wiring for any damage or shorts and ensure that all connections are secure and properly grounded. If you're not comfortable with electrical work, it's recommended that you take your bike to a qualified mechanic or electrician for diagnosis and repair.
It's a separate circuit. The parking lights are activated by the shifter position. It's a running light problem. Check that your instrument lights are not causing a short. An unlit instrument bulb could cause an incomplete circuit to the tail light. Alternatively, there may be an imbalance in the total amp/volt equation. They must be the same Amperage as the factory specifies. A replaced or burnt light bulb may be the answer. Lights must be balanced or they won't distribute properly. One of the filaments in the tail light may be out/burnt. Best of Irish Luck -kell
your bike is a grey import with us spec's on the European bikes the bikes have a on/off switch for the lights on USA spec bikes they come on with the ignition you may also have a red light that comes on on your dash when you go over 80mph your rear indicators are not meant to be on hard work to change this about and and is not for the faint hearted unless you are a very competent person who knows what they are doing leave it rule of thumb is if it works dont fix it it is ok for the European specs
You can pull all your power from the rear tail light! You'll need a multimeter(Or at least a test light of some sort!) on your adapter you'll have a green, a yellow, a brown and a white wire. White- is your ground(Find a good clean nut/bolt on your frame) green- Right turn signal/brake light yellow- left turn/brake light Brown- tail lights
What you'll have to do is find the wires for the tail light on your bike, And one by one probe them(with your multimeter/test light) With whichever accessory on(E.G. turn lights on, then probe the wires until you find the one that has power, This will be your tail light wire. same with both of your turn signals and brake light!
If it is anything like my VZ1600 then just look up under the rear guard, you should see two nuts(?) Been awhile since I looked under there, but they are prob about 8 or 10mm or 5/16 or 3/8th. Undo them and viola your tail light should come off.
Try running the 'long life' or 'extended life' bulbs, They can withstand a little more in the rough service department. Also check to make sure your fender, bulb socket and tail light housing aren't loose, cracked etc. causing a higher than normal amount of vibration. A third thing to check is if your socket or the wires leading to it have a short, your tail light might be energizing alonw with the brake light anf causing the bulb to burn out.
