Need Help w/ Aux. Light Install
I just finished installing my aux light kit using the HD aux light harness that is supposed to allow you to have both the high beam and aux lights on at the same time. I am pretty sure I wired everything correctly because all the lights are working except that my high beam and aux lights still will not come on at the same time. They all work separately or with low beam fine. I used the wiring harness for power to the toggle switch and did not use the yellow wire behind the headlight. Did I miss something?
Also, I have a front turn signal out now but wired both sides the same way. I have the Custom Dynamics LED inserts in my factory signal housings. The insert is not twisting tightly into the housing socket when pushed all the way in but as it is coming out the LED light will flash so I know it has power to it. Any ideas if this could be a problem with the insert or the housing or if there is any way to test them?
Thx,
Brutus

You need a dc volt meter to trouble shoot. Low beam wiring is delivering 12 volts DC to aux. high beam not, need to figure out low beam circuit wiring & how it works. Then apply same learnt knowledge to troubleshooting method to high beams. If dealer has a plug & go harness with no changes then I'd ask them first before attempting any wiring. If your not trained with working with DC voltage don't mess around you can fry everything. I mean blue smoke everywhere & a complete re wire of your bike.

I open up the yellow plug/conector behind the headlight for the third harness wire and it worked fine.
Concerning your custom dynamic led....cheap HD plastic crap!!!! I also had a biatch of a time to seat one of the inserts. Ended up getting stuck in the insert housing and breaking it. Must of had a crack or something. Had to order a new one.

Jose,
So I need to connect the yellow wire to the switch as well or crimp it together with the two power wires from the aux lamps?
I am thinking about just ordering a complete new set of LED signals but not sure what I want. Looking at some smaller joker machine signals and I think I may go with them. Any suggestions?
Thx

OP
Review your install from start to finish. Obviously there is incorrect wiring somewhere. Make sure you have the correct connector to the auxiliary lights.
