Hi SWingers, I'm been riding my SWing for more than half a year and have been loving the ride. My bike is in an odd situation now, need some help.

 

My bike has 2 modified external headlight switches, one for the HID and one for the high beam. When I got the bike, both these beams were connected to the "high beam", this means, in order to switch on my normal low beam (HID), the light switch must be at high beam position, and the low beam external switch must be on.

 

2 days ago, I encountered a problem, the high beam connector seems to have a connection issue. It must be at a very precise position before the high-beam indicator comes on (normally my blue high beam light is on all the time). I have tried spraying WD40, checking fuse, opening up the switch assembly to see what's wrong etc. But now, the high beam can't be engaged, which means I have to ride without headlight. I have brought it to a bike shop and the mechanic says the connection is "melted" or "burnt". He mentioned that soldering is difficult (I'm not sure if it can be done) and suggested that I change the whole assembly, which we all know isn't cheap.

 

Anybody has encountered similar headlight issues? Any electrician I can bring my bike to, to have it settled? Or any solutions, such as disconnecting the wires from the high beam position and connect it to the normal beam etc? Btw, my passing light still can work.

[Scarab]

Haha. Anyway, as per scarab, 2nd link shld not haf jam..

 

Made appointment for this Sunday session liao...lol...2nd link after 9pm should be fine...

[Scarab]

Jam again?

I'm no expert, but your current setup do seems weird. I don't think you need to connect your HID to your high beam to do a switch in the first place.

 

In any case, you can consider asking Ah Choong for options. I usually go to him for wiring help for all my bikes..

based on your description, i think your current connection is something as per the attached pic. its a very funny way to mod a on-off switch for the Low Beam but well, it works... but overloads the switch.

 

the mech may be right; switches kinda heat up when overloaded and the mechanism could be damaged when something "melted" inside. replacing the left throttle assembly is a solution but if you stick to the same config/mod, its only a matter of time something melt again.

a better way is to use a separate switch to control the Low Beam.

 

how to resolve issue without changing assembly?

don't use the High Beam switch

* mount a new switch on the handlebar area or dashboard or somewhere

* disconnect the wires from High Beam switch and transfer them to the new switch

... should work

 

where/who can do the mod?

go look for Ah Choong of A.C. Motor... he's an expert in modding such things

strongly suggest you ask Ah Choong to redo the connections all over.
