Aux Lights Quit working.

Life is good!
2020 R1250RT with OEM aux lights. Noticed suddenly they not on. Aux light indicator on dash is still illuminated. Pressing aux light switch does not turn on lights or extinguish dash light. Baffled. Any input?
 
I had that happen on my 23 1250GSA. I can’t remember the exact sequence I discovered by accident but I think I held the aux light button down while I turned the main ignition on. That got it back in sync and the aux button properly turned the lights on and off again as it should. I’m not 100% on the timing of holding the button down but try fiddling with that.
 
Thanks for reporting back on the issue, that helps everyone. By the way, how did you enjoy replacing the bulb? Just did mine, !!###%&*!! Good thing no-one was within hearing distance.
 
Those who haven't done "dumb" things probably haven't done anything at all...
One of my favorite mentors once told me, "It's not how you f... up, it's how you recover."
