My 2004 Breva 750 blew a fuse last week, killed all the lights and gauge cluster...the fuse was semi melted...stuck a new fuse in and road home....this morning hopped on it to ride it to work, and again, no lights.....so hopped on the NX250 and rode to work.....any ideal where to start looking for the problem, 2 fuses in less than a week doesn't sound like a fluke, so something must be amiss....

I could use some ideals, as electrical is not my strength..... :(
 
Huck,

Look at the wire harness. Something may have chaffed and you are getting a short. Pay particular attention around the steering head as this is where the most flex occurs. Also wiring to and inside the headlight. If you can identify which fuse (the colors of the wires going to the fuse) it would help in tracking down the load that is blowing the fuse. In addition, be sure the contacts in the light switch are clean.
 
Thanks John,
I'll try to look it over closer tonight...
The bike has always been garaged, and only has 7500 miles on it, sure didn't expect an issue like this on it...
I seem to be a magnet for electrical problems with Guzzi's....still need to get the Jackal set up correctly too...Don't guess you're headed this way anytime soon.....maybe the Kentucky rally?
