I need your help....
I need the headlight wireing diagram. I want to make cut out switch for the headlight so i can switch off. I do have the service manual but i couldnt found the low beem wire.
Or did someone did it. I couldnt found any thread regarding it

 

I believe the police bikes can turn off the headlight. Check how they do it.

 

make it easy on your self- put the switch on the ground wire- that way it'll go off whether in high or low beam

black is ground

yellow is low beam

white is high beam

crane cams used to have a wiring diagram on their website that used the starter circuit to de-energise a relay for the headlight.
it turned off the lights whenever the starter cranked.

Sounds like a good idea,a little more voltage to the starter is always a good thing.

 

Available Amperage goes up not Voltage.

 

Glad you caught that, it could have been detrimental to someone who didnt know what i meant.

 

ok..a little less voltage drop then.



if you understand the concept it is dead easy to wire up a relay to the starter circuit.


BTW my FXRP I usually start with the lights off.

it just makes sense.

and on the panhead always...6 volt system

I would like to do that also. Wiring is not my problem, it is locating the switch on an 08 Road King. Both factory switches are already in use and there seems to be no other convenient and unobtrusive location remaining. The relay is in intriguing idea but I don't know the designation for a normally On relay and how the current required to pull the relay OFF compares to the headlight being on. Or, are there tabs on any relay so it can be used either way?
