Eastern Beaver Wiring Help???

[1olbull]

Dear 'Lectric Gurus,
I have the EB full monte with the bar mount switch.
My switch works only in low beam and will not turn off lights if they are in high beam.

Is this the way its supposed to be? Can this be made to work on both beams?
I was wanting to gain full control of operating the headlights as well as re-routing around the ignition switch.
Any help appreciated,
1olbull

Out of curiosity, has anyone put one of these kits on a touring? Low beam sucks on the touring and I am in deer country. I actually avoid riding at night, but it happens occasionally.

I've never heard one way or the other if the touring suffers from the low voltage to the headlight problem or not. You could try running a wire from the battery to the light and see if it brightens it up. It sure does on a standard / tourer.

I installed the same kit.
The Lo Beam cutout switch only turns off the low beam, not the hi beam.
It is working as intended.
