If A Fuse Blows - Honda VTX1800R Owner's Manual

All of the electrical circuits on your
motorcycle have fuses to protect them
from damage caused by excess current
flow (short circuit or overload).
If something electrical on your motorcycle
stops working, the first thing you should
check for is a blown fuse.
Determine from the chart on the circuit
fuse box cover which fuse or fuses control
that component. Check those fuses first,
but check all the fuses before looking
elsewhere for another possible cause of
the problem. Replace any blown fuses and
check component operation.

Main fuse A (and spare) are located
near the starter motor magnetic switch
behind the left side cover.
Main fuse B is located behind the left
