LED Dash Lights not working while engine is running

Super Dooper · Jan 23, 2018

Hey guys,

Have just got a weird issue I'm having with my dash lights. I swtched out the standard bulbs and installed some LED's now the problem I'm having is with my Indicator dash lights.

They work when the engine is off but as soon as the bike is running they no longer light up. I'm thinking it might be something to do with the regulator changing the amount of volts?

Thanks in Advance

I'm not much help with electrical issues, but knowing what the bike is may be a good place to start lol

Haha oh yeah that small detail... It's a Buell Cyclone 1998.

Can you check voltage levels with the engine on and off and report back?

Yeah good idea Sonreir I'll check it out next time I'm in the garage. Thinking that the LED's are rated at 12V.
