check the group of earth wires just under the battery to the left.
Sorry, didn't see this before. Not really relevent in this case, as its not where the system is grounded :)

Steering wheel at 90 degrees anticlockwise, reveals a screw underneath a cap.
Steering wheel at 90 degrees clockwise, reveals similar screw other side
Top cowling lifts off
Unscrew rake adjustment
3 screws under lower cowling
Untangle from rubber around ignition
lower cowling drops off

To quote Haynes, refit is reverse method.

as I said (#8  ;)) just a few screws to remove the cowling - not even sure you need to remove the handle from the column tilt lever.  :y :y

Doable, but really fiddly lifting over ignition switch. Far quicker to unscrew it, for the 3s it takes...

I had a problem with my headlights, they were working fine before I did some work, after that they didnt work on one side. Did as many checks as I could including stalks, turns out it was the fuse holder in the fuse box wasnt getting a good connection, maybe this is where your problem lies?
