Little problem or a big one.

Hallo MP3 friends, I hope one or more of you can help me find the solution.
Short update.
MP3 400LT european model with at front and back separate turn signals and one (daylight running) cyclops low in the front.

Since I had a problem with a two burned reflectors in my headlight unit I had to replace this. In this unit all lights were replaced by Leds or HID.
An it was tops to see. Even on the front wings above the wheels there where white less installed in the (us models) turn signal lights.
Looked great and Maksor did a super job connecting all of this. I just needed to plug in and ready to go.

The new light unit didn't have the connection prepared for the left and right outside turning (us model) lights.

So I just installed it like any other , plug and play.
H4 inside both lamps so nice 2x low or 2 x high beams.

Last Thursday I thought to connect them directly with the cyclops.
All was functioning well.
Me happy.....

Today I went to work.
No turn signals , no alarm lights, no cyclops with sides, one !!!! brake light no backlights ((

I checked the fuses at the left footrest box, all OK.

I disconnected the Cyclops side lights. No result.

I am no technician nor electrician so please who can give me a help.
Thanks a lot. Do not like to drive without light home tonight.

Thanks Dutchman.
Maksor also pointed this out.
I checked those as well.

Even looked for the numbers.
Perhaps I should change them anyway.

And see ....
Are there no RELAIS which can blow up?

Did you just look at the fuses or actually test them with a multimeter? Sometimes they'll look OK to the naked eye but won't conduct current when tested by a tool.

Thanks for your infos and tips.
I have checked then all and .....
A7,5 Ah fuse in de foot fuse box was fooling me.
But now i know and reaced , i went again.
So now the Q is where did it go wrong.
Have to dive in the european version with low in front under radiator centered cyclops dayrunning light.
I connected that to two sidelights all with leds.
Hope i find the solution.

Light and fuse problem
Hello again.
Sorry to bother you more.

This morning disconnected taillights and cyclops
Put new fuse in
Turned ignition key and 'plop' fuse blown.

Checked turnsignal lights and holders if water was in, nothing.

The only thing i can think of is the turnsignal switch on the handle bar or dashboard.

Am i right or are there more options!?
How can someone find this problem?

Thanks...... again.
