On a glorious night like tonight- had to give the Speedster a run. Was challenged a the lights by an enthusiastic gentleman in a Hyundai Coupe. I just bumbled off the line- no point.
Then “ bulb fault” . The near side headlight does not work- the sidelight intermittently. Is this a garage job- or a home fit new unit.
Due to my DIY ineptitude, SWMBO does not allow me a toolset- so should / could I replace?
I had exactly this issue on the Aeromax.
Long story short, it turned out to be an early symptom of a failing battery. The CANBUS electrics do not like even a small voltage drop before triggering bizarre warning lights and safety cut outs - in my case, not firing up the HT feeds to the HIT headlamp ballasts. New battery fixed it. I also learned that a CTEK charger slowly kills the battery over time, even though apparently keeping it 'fully charged'.
Worth a battery swap to see if it resolves.
