Default Advice time, Back-light and horn....

Hi Lads and Lassies. I have some little issues with my GZ250 Marauder.

First thing what i have now noticed few time is that if i turn off the ignition on the bike, take out the key, the back light comes on and stays on, unless i put the key back in the ignition and switch the bike on and off again.
Would that be something to do with ground or loose wire?? Im just afraid that if it comes on and i dont notice, it will eventually just drain my battery

Second thing is that the horn do not make any sound what so ever...is the horn gone, any easy way to test that?

And happy coming Patrick's day ya all in

Check your ignition wires arent earthing on something or chafed for the back light and i'd recommend viagra for the non functioning horn

This is what this site is all about - gentlemen , oh , and gentle ladies .
Horn could be simple , like a loose connection at the back or a bad earth where its attached to the frame , check these first .
