a simple change to make that allows one light to stay on for low beam as normal and both beams when you switch to high for even better lighting. There is a center bulb socket in the headlight unit of the Lightnings that is not used on the US models. It serves as a running light for the European models. The wiring for the light is already in place and can be switched out for the low beam circuit. There are four wires that are housed together in the harness for the headlight. The black is a ground, the yellow is low beam, white is high beam, and brown/yellow is for the running light. If you swap the yellow with the brown/yellow in the harness the running light circuit will now light the low beam and stay on all the time. The high beam circuit will no longer interrupt the circuit powering the low beam light. |

You can also use a quick-splice connector between the yellow and blue wires in the harness behind the windscreen. This will allow you to still use the parking light socket if you wish. |

Or... you can just find the harness connector for the headlights and switch the yellow and orange wires. Quick, easy, professional & easy to switch back. Pass to flash still works, low beam is single, high beam is double. All it takes is a paperclip. |
