Moderator Posts: 9221 Re:Mark Cole's $100 Passing Lamps 3 Years, 12 Months ago   It's a mis-print or he probably meant that it is on whenever the ign. is switched on..   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #89310 Pop Rivet (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 3123 Re:Mark Cole's $100 Passing Lamps 3 Years, 12 Months ago   not sure what headlight connector plug he is talking about...not the one in the headlamp housing...???   Logged     Last Edit: 2008/05/29 14:17 By Pop Rivet.   2009 Ultra Classic HD...2005 Silverado Road Star MY WEBSITE HOG HEAVEN Listen to the Road Star   The administrator has disabled public write access. #89312 Flashback (Moderator) Just the facts, Ma'am.. Moderator Posts: 9221 Re:Mark Cole's $100 Passing Lamps 3 Years, 12 Months ago   The way I read it, he is just splicing into the hot lead to the headlight..   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #89313 Pop Rivet (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 3123 Re:Mark Cole's $100 Passing Lamps 3 Years, 12 Months ago   in the headlamp bucket ??? there are two hot leads on the headlight connector a yellow and a green...one is hot when on hi beam only and one is hot on low beam only...and of coarse the black ground wire.. there is hot lead that feeds the hi /low switch on the handle bar but its a red yellow wire... for an always on setup....or the blue running light wires   Logged     Last Edit: 2008/05/29 14:22 By Pop Rivet.   2009 Ultra Classic HD...2005 Silverado Road Star MY WEBSITE HOG HEAVEN Listen to the Road Star   The administrator has disabled public write access. #89317 Mark7 (Moderator) Look for me on MSN chat if you want. Moderator Posts: 2051 Re:Mark Cole's $100 Passing Lamps 3 Years, 12 Months ago   Always "on" was an incorrect and misleading way to describe the state of the power source for the lights. In hindsight, what I should have said was that "if the key is in the "on" position there is power to the lights. My intent was to convey that they remain on regardless of whether the main headlight was on high or low beam. My apologies for that technical error. Here's a picture of the blue/olive green wire that I tapped to get power for the lights. The red vampire tap connects the red wire to the passing lamps. The blue/olive green wire isn't directly off the plug or the headlight, but contained within the headlight housing. I'll send Gram a note to make these clarifications next time he does an edit. I hope this clears up any misunderstanding about where the power comes from.
