Low Beams/High Beams

[Dinner]

Before I did my own clean up port on my shee, the lights would only work on low, even if the switch was on high. After I ported my shee, and being as it rev's higher...at low idle the lights stay low beam, but once over a certain RPM, the high beams will kick on and stay on until I let the rev's down again. Are they suppose to do this, or what's the deal here

 

 

Thanks

This is an original problem if I am not mistaken. If I were to guess, there is probably something loose and/or messed up in your switch on the handle bars. The variance with RPM could simply be that a cricuit is closing as vibration increases. :thumbsup:

I think you are probably right. Awhile ago I took my kill switch apart because it wasn't working properly. And I think I remember seeing some of the wires off(solder "broke") So maybe I'll solder her all back together this week.

If it change with the RPM maybe its the voltage regulator?

I have gone through a ton of handle bar switches. As soon as any sand gets in them it is all over. I had one of the guys from the electronic shop at work partially pot the my latest switch with epoxy. I think I have had this switch for about two years which is a world record for me. :thumbsup:
