ok, so i rode my bike today and the lights have been playing up! the bikes a 2008 yamaha xt125x completly standard. It has side lights for when the ignitions on but not the engine, then dipped & full beam. The only light thats coming on is the side beam & the full beam dash light is constantly on!? when i flick the switch between dipped & full nothing happens? Sometimes it comes back to life & works or the full beam light will start flickering. I have no idea where to start looking for a fault as im no electritian!!

Has anybody got any ideas?

    Check the connections to the bulbs behind the headlight.

    Spray a little wd40 into the switchgear.

    Just gone out to it & now its only the dipped working. the dash beam lights still on & the switch isnt bringing up full beam. So first i think ill get a new bulb & go from there & check connectors
