Irony is...

.... having your blinkers stop working on your way from getting the Pink Slip
to going to the RTA to re-register the Beast.

I shit you not.

Now I have to play "tip-toe through the fscking wiring" to work out where
it's all gone tits-up. I swear, I'm just going to rip it all out and
replace it with the spare wiring harness I have. It's just not fscking
worth it.

James Mayfield is of the opinion:

Fucked fuse this time. No idea what the horn problem is, I'll just have to
play "trace the volts" at some stage. It's not a high priority - if I had a
horn, I'd probably wear it out honking at all the idiots obliviously
trundling around.

Tee hee! Horn!

I had the same problem with Nameless Boy the other day. I'd just
discovered and fixed the case of the oil leak[1] and put the fairing
back on, when I discovered that the blinkers wouldn't work. Then the
headlight stopped working.

It turned out that I'd snagged the right switchblock's cable while I
was replacing the tank, and unplugged it from the rest of the wiring
harness.

As for the horn, while my mate Scotty was up here to pick up his
GPz500 I waited until he was plugging the speedo cable into the wheel
hub before sounding the horn and deafening him. Then when he got home
to Melbourne and took it in for a roadworthy it wouldn't work any
more. It happens. ;-)

hot header pipe.

 

Disconnect the spade lugs from the horn, and hook a test light up to
it. Doesn't take too long, and in my mate's case the actual horn unit
was faulty.

Shut the hell up, Conehead/Hammo/Clem/Mick/Pat!

BT Humble is of the opinion:

I've got a fair idea of how to work out what the problem is, I just couldn't
be arsed.
