[QUOTE="MY-BLUE-BEAST, post: 86608, member: 388"] Hello, MY-BLUE-BEAST here with more problems for someone to try and solve :smirk:. My boss found a headlight switch in the shops storage room and said I could have it, so of course I took it. I followed the instructions to the letter. I hooked it up and since my light runs on a lighting coil the bike has to be running for it to turn on. My battery was dead, how I dont know but it charged right up. I got the bike running and the light came on... but the switch was in the "off" position, so I turned it to "on" and the light was still on. A little volt meter tells me that there is an open circuit from the switch. Any thoughts on why? Im sure it is just a bad switch, but if it is something I could fix quick that would be cool... thantks. :thumb: P.S. thanks for reading all the novels of a description I post:smirk: [/QUOTE]
