High beam / Low beam?
« on: July 28, 2009, 12:02:00 PM »
Working on the 08 SEUC the other day and had the front cowling off when I installed the motolights.  I'm not sure, but I'm wondering if I connected the headlight bulbs correctly?  On low beam, only the lower bulb on, high beam both the lower and upper are on.  Sounds right, but just wanted to ask.

On low beam, THE UPPER LIGHT IS ON ONLY! On high beam, both are on! Sounds like you have them reversed. ;)

Hoist! 8)That's kind of what I was thinking as one of my coworkers was complaining how bright my low beam was :-[  Oh well, back to the garage on the next day off.  Thanks much!
