and its not the typical warming the bulbs buzz... it only lasts for about 3 seconds and then quits. | ||

Could there be a short in wire somewhere? Or maybe an internal short on the ballast to the case, and when you put it under the flyscreen it grounds out (even though it shouldn't)? | ||

reepicheep thanks for the info. i got it. there actually was a short in the hot wire that runs into the low beam bulb and the buzz was the wire shorting against the triple tree. thanks for the reply | ||

Glad it was an easy fix! Hope it didn't weld anything.  |
