bansheedude55 Posted February 9, 2011 Author Report Posted February 9, 2011 so MN shee how do you think i can hook up these lights? the lights i just got only have 2 wires coming out of them... what wire can i bypass or make something work?!! Quote
MN SHEE Posted February 9, 2011 Report Posted February 9, 2011 i used black any yellow not shure if its the right two but it worked for me IMO Quote
bansheedude55 Posted February 9, 2011 Author Report Posted February 9, 2011 ok man,,,, thats what ill do then.. lol and then what do i do with the green wire? what did you do with it? lol Quote
bansheedude55 Posted February 9, 2011 Author Report Posted February 9, 2011 MN SHEE should i just leave it hanging out? lol Quote
ECshee Posted February 9, 2011 Report Posted February 9, 2011 this has been a question on my mind as well. if its an aftermarket light, there is usually only 2 wires coming from the housing itself. In most cases it is just 2 wires, so what do you splice or discard, if you have to hook up the black for regs, yellow for highs, and then where does the ground go? do you splice the 2 together and then connect the ground up by itself?

Boston Posted February 9, 2011 Report Posted February 9, 2011 i believe i left mine just hangin. idk ill have to look. Quote
Boston Posted February 9, 2011 Report Posted February 9, 2011 now i remember i spliced the high and low beams together. Quote
bansheedude55 Posted February 9, 2011 Author Report Posted February 9, 2011 (edited) ok man... im just gunna go get the 35 watt bulbs and ill be back later and ill try and throw them on... and boston so basically what you did was you took the black and yellow wires and twisted them together then hooked those two up to the one wire to the lights and then u hooked the green up the the other wire from the lights?!? and EC shee im in the same situation.... hopfully boston will let us know!!

Boston Posted February 9, 2011 Report Posted February 9, 2011 yeah thats exactly what i did so that the lights worked on the high and low beams. Quote
bansheedude55 Posted February 9, 2011 Author Report Posted February 9, 2011 ok!!!! thanks alot boston!!!! Quote
MN SHEE Posted February 9, 2011 Report Posted February 9, 2011 i beleve the black is a ground because when i cut mine it would not shut off with the switch on the handlebars just telling you what i did Quote
tedd1 Posted February 9, 2011 Report Posted February 9, 2011 Yellow is high beam. Green is low beam. Black is ground. I wouldn't hook them together, you only need one... and tape the one you don't use so it wont short out... Quote
