If it's like the old air cooled it does. I'd try moving the switch a little
back towards off. You might be surprised - if the contacts are worn and the
switch is like the air cooled models often the headlights will come on.
It'll buy you a little time while you chase down another switch.

Probably the ignition switch.

If I remember correctly, power for that circuit
comes from the ignition switch.
