:waving:Did you check for voltage on both sides of the fuse?

Hi guys i got the 81 gl1100 running today and after going over all the usual maint issues i found i did not have power to the tail light fuse # 3 from the accessory side .Any ideas as to where to start the troubleshooting?On my 75 the fuse box is open on the back the 81 is closed.Thanx in advance from mass.Jim

:waving:Exactly what do you mean by "the accessory side"? With the key in the accessory position power will only be at the accessory terminal and at the 10 amp accessory fuse which powers the accessory terminal. Also the audio system is powered up with the key in the accessory position. Turning the key to the on positionvoltage is nowavailable to power all systems on the bike. Also what do you mean that the fuse panel (box) is closed. The top is removal exposing all the fuses. Need some clarification.
