Consumer Description

STARTING IN MID 2009, THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2007 YAMAHA FJR1300A MOTORCYCLE WOULD OCCASIONALLY FLICKER OFF AND ON. ON DECEMBER 21ST, 2009 THE HEADLIGHTS FAILED COMPLETELY WHILE RIDING HOME FROM WORK IN THE DARK! PROBLEM WAS FOUND TO BE A GROUNDING CONNECTION ABOVE THE LEFT HEADLIGHT THAT HAD CORRODED AND OVERHEATED THE CONNECTOR AND SPIDER INSERT. THE FAULTY CONNECTOR WAS REMOVED AND THE WIRES WERE SOLDERED TOGETHER TO FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR
