I turn on my bike and the headlights, tail lights, and fog lights go off. I have a 1992 FLH Electra Glide Ultra Classic. Any idea of what is going on?

Either your Harley is wired wrong, or you are tripping a breaker as a result of a dead short. When you turn on your ignition switch, listen to see if you hear the “click” of a breaker tripping. Determine which breaker is tripping an inspect everything that is powered from it.

Try unplugging your headlight. Then turn on the ignition switch. See if the problem still exists.
