Title: Location of headlight relays?
Post by: VABird on July 13, 2018, 03:02:00 AM
Looking for the headlight relays. One of my headlights is bass ackwards.
When high beam is selected, one is on high and one is on low.
Switching bulbs produces same result.
Switching connectors reverses the result, so it's in the wiring and or relay.
Where is the physical location of the relays?

L/H side next to clocks, ( Yep, front cowl has to come off)

PS: From the factory only 1 headlight is on with low beam, many have upgraded the relays to have both on. From memory,  from the factory there should be 2 empty relay sockets next to the clocks which get filled with specific relays to get the 2 lamps on together. Could be that someone has tried to do the upgrade and used wrong relays or similar.

USA model
Both on
no headlight switch
Sounds like a relay is wrong
Probably a normally closed relay was stuck in when it should have been a. NO relay
Or vice versa
But I'll bet you find its the relays are wrong

Right is right!
Left is wrong!

Thanks for all the input.
I did look in that area before and the only relay I saw is for the heated grips.
I'll check again.

The headlight relays are hidden under a big square rubber boot
