The wire that has the black orange yellow and white wire that plugs into the headlights.

I cut that switch off and started putting the connectors on them. The R headlights do not have a orange wire light the lightning headlights did. So I do not know where to go with that wire.

 

[oh9bolt]

Your yellow and white wire need to be moved to the positions in this photo.

 

[gtp3800]

right, but the S switch and R switch are both male connectors so I had to cut them off to use crimp connectors. Now Im not sure which wire goes to which wire in order to make both headlights on.

 

[oh9bolt]

Cant you just move the yellow and white wire in this pic over and be good?

09bolt you sure that he needs the dual headlightmod?

 

[gtp3800]

I can try, so if I did that it would be black to black, (yellow from bike to nothing), Yellow to white, and white to orange...

 

[oh9bolt]

Yeah because he has a lightning

 

[oh9bolt]

Im just going off the picture i have no experience doing this mod btw.

 

[gtp3800]

ok here let me ask this. is this stock/normal for the R headlights

??? or do both come on with brights??

 

[oh9bolt]

No thats why i feel you have to do the both on mod

 

[gtp3800]

yea, ill have to find a way to figure this out....

 

[jakestolar]

gtp do you have a voltometer?

 

[jakestolar]

if it comes down to it. i'll pull my front end off and see what order my connectors are in

 

[gtp3800]

gtp do you have a voltometer?

I know someone that does... I cant find a picture of how it would look. I have 4 wires coming off of the bike that need to connect to 3 wires coming off of the R headlight module.

 

[jakestolar]

What I'm thinking is disconnect the headlight. Then take the voltometer and find out which wires do what. Then I think you can find the missing link

 

[gtp3800]

Yea that could work, hopefully I can figure it out.

 

[jakestolar]

What year is yours? Do you have the repair manual? In my book it has both the r and s models. If you can read a wire diagram that may help

 

[gtp3800]

well from looking online, orange is running light, white is high beam, yellow is low beam, and black is ground. I do not have a service manual. My bike is a xb12scg 05.

 

[gtp3800]

to do the mod on the lightning, you switch the yellow wire with the orange wire.... ok, but I still have the issue of only having 3 wires coming off of the R headlights. Am I missing something here?
