Electrical Issues With My Ducati Streetfighter 848

  1. hi,

    I just noticed that sometimes my whole headlight unit would not come on. The dash, turn signals and tailight are working perfect.

    Today, i found out that when i twist a little the big harness that connects the headlight to the bike the whole unit comes to life.

    Does it mean there is a bad wire connection in the connector ? a bad headlight relay ?

    I double checked the fuses and everything is fine.

    anybody have any clues ?
     
  2. There is a relay tucked under there, might be worth swapping it out.
    IIRC there the same as the two next to the battery, but they're a bugger to get at, worth buying a couple as spares anyways as there are notoriously poor!
    Only a couple of quid/bucks/shekles each.
