Carefully check all wiring by your brackets in the fairing (a bad bracket). I had a bracket that chapped the wiring causing a ground.

&nbsp\\;My son had the front tire rubbing the wire that goes to the fender tip light. After he cut the wire and taped the end he never had another problem. You might check it.

Keep the faith

You'll probably have to pull the console cover also.&nbsp\\; Do you know how to remove the ignition/key switch?

The blown accessory fuse is making the gauges quit working? This doesn't sound right.

I had a problem with my accessory fuse blowing but it didn't affect the guages. A wire inside the fairing was pinching on the frame when I turned the bike to the left.

Yes its the first fuse in the block , when blown none of the gauges work . I took it back to the dealer after work {pain in the a$$} I have less than a month left on the warranty , so hopefully they will fix it or I'll be messing with it myself.

I don't know if the acc fuse is the same as the cig lighter fuse but I keep blowing that fuse and what was causing it was a metal piece off of a ceell phone charger came off and was stuck in the cig lighter and causing the fuse to blow.

If your wiring is anything like the Road King, I would have a good look inside the headlight housing. There are all manner of sharp edges to rub through wires in there.
