Noob here, just got this CB 450 cleaned the carbs, brakes, tires, new blinkers, blah blah. Thought it was all good to go. Rode it one day everything was fine i know the headlight WAS working (I made sure) i change oil about to go for a ride then realize headlight isn’t working test headlight by hooking it up to battery and its good. Then i start looking at the wiring I take off the turn signal switch/horn/clutch handle and next thing i know the whole bike is dead no dash lights no nothing.
I end up taking taking apart the ignition switch not the problem but needed to be cleaned anyway.
Okay so today i got some new fuses solved the dead bike problem and soldered a wire to the bottom fuse holder since one of the clips was broken wrapped said wire around fuse. Everything seems to be solid now except I still have no power to the headlight. I have voltage in and out of the middle headlight fuse while bike is in ON position and no voltage either side when OFF.
I was reading a bit and think ill take apart the starter switch now, but if anyone has any ideas any help is appreciated!
Update it was the starter switch
