My '83 had the same problem, and I planed on resoldering the CMU, but I picked up a mint dash and swapped the whole dash out. Everything worked great afterwards.... I'm positive the CMU needed to be fixed. The link above is off the other Venture board.

Maybe that is what is wrong with mine, the head light will go out for a split second then come back on. Does anyone know what the reserve lighting unit actually does?:confused24:

 

It monitors the lighting. In the case of the head light it lets the rider know that the head light needs replacing and switches over to another circut for the high beam. That's if there are no cold solder joints in the CMU, which is generally the case in 99.9% on the time. Just like the CLASS system board. The bikes get old and aren't going to last forever without maintenence... Just like us... :) Vibration and age will take a toll....
