Light problem on a 2022 axis 500

[shaught66]

I bought my axis a couple months ago and noticed that when I turn my lights on, I have no tail lights, no licence plate light, and one of my high beams doesn't work. I switched the bulb in the headlight and the bulb works so it isn't it. I have brake and flasher lights but not tail lights. I have been waiting for a mobile tech but I would like to drive my utv at night. Any help appreciated.

Go to Motorcycledoctor.com click on advice & knowledge and scroll down until you see your model. Click on your model and at the bottom of the page he will have schematics of your system. You'll need to be able to use a voltage/ohm meter and read a schematic.

I'm going to GUESS the connections for the lights at the back of the dump bed are not connected. There are clip connections there for the light on either side of the bed. When I had to remove my bed, I had to undo the connections.

 

If you are not comfortable messing with the connections. Then I recommend waiting on the mobile tech. After all the machine is under warranty. Or you may want to look there. They are up in a kinda hard to reach place. It's just starting to get daylight outside. I'll see if I can get some pics of where and what to look for. The schematics that Andy mentioned will help troubleshoot.

Here are some pics from my Axis 500 of the light connections under the bed.

That connector is it for trailer lights? or is there a place to hook up trailer lights?
