My low beams and tail light went out basically (very dim) last night while waiting for food. I figured maybe some connection rattled loose. The high beams worked so I drove it home.
Just got back from my mom and dads house (sis's b-day) today and pulled panels off to start checking wires. Nothing looked bad, did a bit of wiggling and still nothing. Finally grabbed a hold of the headlight wires and one set was HOT. The ground looks like it will need replaced soon at the socket connection (frayed), but I pulled the bulb out on the HOT side, lol, and found out that they sent me a 35w bulb instead of the two 18w bulbs I ordered. So they sent me an 18w and 35w bulb.
Been riding it like that for over a week. One thing I did notice was that after installing the lights and before the lights went very dim, when switching between low/high there was a slight delay. Hopefully that goes away, I haven't rode anywhere yet.
Check them new bulbs.
