Motorcycle Repair: 1999 GW SE running lights, replacement bulbs, foot level


Question
Mark,
I have a 99 Goldwing SE.  I feel foolish in asking, but I need to replace the left running light (clear one located about foot level).  I cannot figure out how to get access to the bulb!  Sounds silly, but hopefully you can help me out.  Thanks in advance,
Robert

Answer
Hi Robert,

If I recall, with the lower front center cowl removed, you can reach under the side cowl and remove the entire light assembly by removing the two springs that hold the light in place.

The light will have several inches of wire slack. Once the light is in the open, dis-connect the multi-connector and the light is clear and free.

You'll see how the bulbs are removed.

Have to get the replacement bulbs from Honda. Thanks, Honda.

If you have difficulty, advise. I'll try and find some additional intel to assist you.
