No head lights - MOT in a minute aaargh

[Sir Sidney Ruffdiamond]

So got Joan out from her slumbers and she started immediately but checking through the basics for MOT

No headlight and rear light

brake light ok - indicators ok , horn ok

4 fuses all got 12 volts each side ignition on

bulbs checked all open circuit

Is there a relay somewhere ?

Ideas - trying to take bar switches to check for 12 apart but crosshead V .tight

I never checked the lights since she come home

two switches Pilot , head and dip and the other off on and S ?

Sorted - seemed strange as everything was ok voltage wise - its been rewired and tidy and dry - so I moved to my Combine Harvester mantra that 80% of all setting problems are operator related  - Sure result - Lights only work with the engine running  8)

It happens!

Last year when I took my Jota 120 in for MOT the mechanic announced that my lights didn't work and it had failed.
I went up to the bike and quietly turned them on - he was flicking the LOW/HIGH switch, not the ON/OFF.
Kids these days eh! Although I think on modern bikes the lights are always on so he wasn't familiar.
