I have switched out the voltage reg. i have taken the seat off and tried to find a short on the tunnel. (the lights on the gauges work so i guess there is not a short???) and yes i have replaced the bulbs. is it possible it could be the hi/low switch? also, my tail light wasn't working either and then i broke it and now it has bare wires. is it possible that those wires not connected could make an incomplete circuit and the volt reg could have been the problem? if someone could help me i would appreciate it!!

I have the exact same sled with a similar problem. my lows don't work, i've tried everything, changed bulbs, followed wires, took apart the switch and i can't find the problem????

not that i'm aware of. I'm just hoping that replacing the switch does it. i can't deal with this anymore.

Yep. They melt. The new ones are made better. Buy new or do what my cheap friend did....... bypass with a jumper in the headlight pod.

Get some of those fancy chrome toggles from your local hardware store and wire them up. They fit perfectly next to your key.
