I picked up on 02 SV650s today, while riding back I noticed the "pass" button wasn't doing anything and the full beam didn't seem to be working. I know I should have checked this but it only passed MOT a few days ago and stupidly didn't think.

When I got home I pulled off the connector to check the bulb which was fine. I plugged it back in and now have no lights at all except the little one above the main two lights. Instrument panel is lighting up fine and rear light is fine. Any ideas anyone?

Check the fuses, check the relay, check the switch, check the bulb. Got a multimeter?

Mine is having similar issues with headlights playing up.

I reckon it's an earthing issue on mine just judging by the way the lights cut out. Might be worth a check. Best to sort it out before riding too far, saves getting stranded with no lights at night!
