On a recent ride to Utah the headlight low beam went out on my 2003 K1200RS. Not really a problem as I don't ride that much in non-daylight hours and just stayed on the hi beam for the run back to Texas. When I got home I decided to make sure it wasn't just a blown fuse before I started taking off the tupperware to get at the headlight assembly and that's when things got interesting. Both the wiring diagram and illustrations in my Clymer manual showed the low beam fuse to be located under the seat in FB#!, fuse #4 (of 8), with the fuse being 7.5A. I opened up FB#1 and found only 4 fuses, 2@15A and 2@4A. (FB#2 which was also shown in the manual as containing 8 fuses was also configured the same as FB#1.) All the fuses checked good so I'm going ahead with the lamp replacement but I'm curious about the disconnect between the Clymer manual and the actual configuration of my bike. I've been using Clymer manuals for years now and this is the first major discrepancy I've come across... or am I overlooking another fuse box(es) somewhere not referenced in the manual?
