- January 16, 2017, 14:58:14 PMUnder the heading of the last thing you touched is the problem....I'm sure I had something to do with this, but don't know what. First:
- have never had either of these warning lights come on or stay on, much less together
- there is oil and coolant at the proper levels
- last time I rode the bike all was normal.
Now for the me part....
- Installed another set of saddlebags today
- while installing the left side bag, I had a block of wood under the kickstand, so the bike as level...so I could get the saddle bag where I wanted it
- while I was fooling with the left side saddlebag, the bike fell over on to its right side on the engine guard...not hard, just went over.
- picked it up; saw that some coolant had spilled...very little.
- went back and completed the saddlebag install.
Decided to go out for a ride. It started normally....I warmed it up...didn't notice both warning lights were on until I after pulled out and was riding a few minutes. Fan did not come on ever.
Drove the bike about two miles, thinking what are the chances both systems have a problem...must be an electrical gremlin. Then it stalled as I came to a light. It started back up and I got it back home without incident. The stalling is probably a red herring, but it made me get back home. It didn't stall again.
So temp and oil warning lights do not extinguish when engine starts. From what I can see, no fuses for these individually...so any thoughts from the group? Much appreciated.
