So the brake light and speedo light are on different fuses & both blow? If only speedo light fuse is blowing then could the 2 issues be unrelated - e.g. the brake switch is not activating the light & the speedo light has a shorted/broken wire?Everything else's works fine
Well I've looked everywhere on this damn thing and can't find anything wrong. After rereading your post I see you said running lights are on the same circuit, I noticed I hooked my accessory wire for my amp on one of the running light wires. I unhooked it, maybe it was too much for it but it's been hooked up like that for a few months and just started having this problem in the last week.Hi, just checked the wiring diagram and speedo light, brake light, tail light and front running lights are all on the tail light fuse. I would suspect the fault is somewhere under the seat or near to the ignition switch. Start by removing the seat and tool tray as maybe the loom to the rear fender has been trapped under the tool tray and is shorting to the metal mounts or perhaps the ignition switch wiring has been trapped somewhere under there. Kawasaki seem to have crammed a lot of plugs, relays and other stuff into a small space.
This could be the culprit. Sometimes when you do things like that, it doesn't immediately overload the circuit. The amp could cause a spike in current which then overloads the circuit and blows the fuse months sometimes years after install.

I'm really hoping that's it! Thanks for the link, I did see that thread before but now I'm going to have to follow it.This could be the culprit.
