Guest Zpeed Posted May 13, 2002 Share Posted May 13, 2002 check globes... connections... check the switch at the steering wheel to make sure that is is properly connected.. and check fuses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLKMGK Posted May 13, 2002 Share Posted May 13, 2002 My Z switches GROUND for th ehigh and low beams. If you do a search here you'll find my trials from when I wired up my lights with relays. Are these lights a higher wattage? If so use relays or you'll smoke that switch. Wish I could help you better but it's been awhile since I troubleshot mine. If it were in front of me.... (sigh) Be sure and get a schematic to look at, it really helps. Volt meter on the various connections too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted May 14, 2002 Share Posted May 14, 2002 Get the painless relay kit like Pete P did. I followed his lead on this and it is amazing what a difference that made . The lights are much brighter and they nolonger go out with a puff of smoke from the switch or fuse box. Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
