Check these circuits in order: LOW beam, High beam, TAIL light.
Meter across the head light bulb. You should read 12+VDC + or - 2VDC across two legs to GROUND but NOT the other. If no voltage is present, the engine must be running, start the engine and repeat. Turn the engine off after locating the low beam circuit. Repeat these steps on the HIGH beam circuit and tail light circuit. The LOW beam circuit should have no voltage when the HIGH beam circuit is on and vice versa. The tail light should have voltage on both. The common leg will either be tied together with a wire or will be grounded to the frame. If grounded to the frame, clean the connections. If tied together with a wire, check the full length of the wire for damage, repair as necessary.
If your voltage is 9 VDC or less, you likely have a Voltage regulator issue, replace and recheck.
BRAKE light and TURN signals. The BRAKE light should be a dual filement bulb. The second filement should come on when the brakes are applied. It should read on the meter at 12+VDC + or - 2VDC across one leg to GROUND. The TURN signals should alternate 12VDC to Zero while working.
2)Ground seeking circuits. These circuits should all read 12VDC + or - 2VDC. These circuits should all be HOT even if the bulbs are NOT shining. When the circuit is turned ON, they will receive a GROUND to complete the circuit. All of the same checks should be made as in the Voltage Seeking circuits.
