Default lighting failure

I have a 96 vn800 a and the tail light, brake light and instrument clustrer light do not work. All fuses are good and all connections are good. The bike starts and runs fine and the headlight comes on after start up. The turn signals work and so does the horn. HELP ! ! !

I know you can usually find some cd's on ebay but if you know how to use a multi meter I would start checking voltage and wire continuity. start at the junction box and work your way out to the lights from there. take your time it is usually frustrating but you def. will find the issue that way

A meter is the greatest tool just under the knowledge level. I will check my archives for a diagram.

ok, I only have the VN 750, 1000,1200.1500,1600, and 2000manuals But I am sure that you could cross reference, since diagrams are normally close for a few years.
