Hi-Beam issues

[Snakebite]

I went out for a ride today, and noticed on several occasions that my hi-beams would come on, on their own. At first I'd shut em off, but by the end of the 300 mile ride they flat out wouldn't go to low beam at all.

Figured it was better than having the headlight go out, but was curious if this is a common issue.

could be your low beam going out or lose/bad connection in the bucket...

oh yah my old dog switches to high beam when the low beam burns out, but definately check the connector in the buckett when I finally checked mine it was because smoke was comming out of it and that connector was history.....there is a forum with a link to a site that has the killer ceramic replacment. later, g.

Your low beam is out. The next thing your hi will go too. Replace bulb soon.

Yeah Shane, I do believe you need a new bulb, the system switches your to HI beam when low beam burns out. Easy doing! :2thumbs:
