Problem with fuse keep blowing on my Paso
I have to tell this to every Paso owner. My bike's fuse(the one that is 7.5 amps) was blowing every once in a while and could not find the problem. I did all the modication as far as adding relays, cleanning the contacts and ground but the broblem was comming back and did not stay to trouble shoot. Finally the problem came back as I was riding the bike this weekend and I had to tow the bike back home. The problem was with the turn signal's bulb socket. The plate that supplies the ground to the light bulb was bushed back so close to the (+) contact to the bulb. I checked the other sockets and all of them exept one had the same problem. That problem applies to all of the light bulb sockets on this bike. This problem usually hapbens when you change the light bulb. You have to make sure the the side contact does not slide back as you push the bulb in the socket.
