Hi fellow riders, I'm after a bit of advice on getting a headlight working on my bike.
I bought my 2009 FZ6 naked streetfighter as a more or less completed project and gave it all the finishing touches... Upon buying it it has never had a functional headlight.
It came the the twin vertical spot lights (sort of ducati style) and they have never powered up.
When I removed the lights from the aftermarket bracket mounted to the forks I found a diy job on the waiting loom and all connector blocks have been cut off leaving open ends.
I then checked power to the wires and there's voltage to the live feeds and the indicators seperate to the lights work so assuming there's not a problem further back from the cluster switch/loom.
I have done endless amounts of research and found out from forums/wiring diagrams what code/function the stock fz6 wires are for.
Black been- ground
Black with yellow stripe- high beam
Black with green stripe- low beam.
I have tried most variations to connect the right wires together and give the lights power and checked both bulbs (beleive they are h3) starting the engine every time after each variation of connection.
I was concerned about shorting anything out so stopped guessing and ordered a new streetfighter led headlight with daytime running lights and intend on keeping the original indicators.
It has arrived with different wires again to the dual spot style and still has the connector block still on the end.
If I upload photos of the wires available on my bike and the new headlight wires/connection, can anyone please advise as I'm lost and any advice would be much appreciated... ️
