PASSING LIGHTS 1 Year, 10 Months ago  
Does anybody know what the little toggle switch is for on the left passing light?

Are they on or off? What year bike?Not to critique you, but it helps if you fill out the info in your profile.Different years and models have changed over the years as to wiring.We can help you more with the more info you provide.

On/Off switch. Tend to short out. Also, Check to make sure headlight is on "low beam"(often wired into low beam circuit).

Did you wire the lights to the "low beam" yourself ?,.. or was that the factory setup?

I didn't wire them up that way. This is just what I've read about on here. I had mine wired to a constant hot and turned them on and off with a separate switch up on my brake reservoir.
