I"m just thinking that when you replaced your bulb initially, you may have touched the glass portion on the bulb itself. Make absolutly sure you don't touch the glass on the bulb. The oil from your fingers that touched the glass, will heat up the glass and cause the bulb to blow....again.   Logged     2008 Harley Crossbones.

I have a buddy with an 05 that does the same thing. I run high all the time day light hours to increase visibility. My light bar stays on when I put on the high beam. I think it may be the way the dealer wired it when they assembled the bike. I am no electric wiz, but you have got to be able to run the high beams and passing lamps at the same time??? Any one else got any ideas.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #44537 Musky (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 15137 Re:Headlight bulbs re-addressed 10 Years, 4 Months ago   My passing lamps are on all the time.

I never touch the bulbs, and when I changed the bars, I didn't have to take the switchs apart, just split them and reinstalled them on the new bars. I'll figure it out, just kinda baffles me.

He said this is what they are supposed to do. he is incorrect? do they have a more positive lighting effect when on with the high beams? I see the wiring instructions tell you which wire to use depending on what you are after.   Logged     \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"A mind full of judgment has little room for wisdom\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"   The administrator has disabled public write access. #47413 Musky (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 15137 Re:Headlight bulbs re-addressed 10 Years, 4 Months ago   It really depends on what you like. They get wired all different ways. Mine are on all the time regardless of low or high. St really depends on what you like. They get wired all different ways. Mine are on all the time regardless of low or high. S[peaking for myself, if I want enough light to need highbeam I would like the passing lamps on too.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #47414 javawave (User) Over 18314 good days in a row and counting Platinum Boarder Posts: 5716 Re:Headlight bulbs re-addressed 10 Years, 4 Months ago   thats what I thought. I was surprised when he told me they work like fog lights and go off when you use the high beam.   Logged     \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"A mind full of judgment has little room for wisdom\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"   The administrator has disabled public write access.
