• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

$80 Aux Lighting DIY

Hi Zuni,

I tried to hook into the driving lights wires, but I don't have any power. I put the two black wires together at the switch, and I put power from the orange wire to the grey/gn wire, but I don't have any power on the grey/gn wire at the connector for the driving lights. Is there a fuse that I have to put in? At this point I am thinking of just wiring it up myself.

Also, why is the power at the switch coming from the dash cluster fuse? I know this because I accidentally touched the wires together. :gaah: I would have thought it would come from the daylights fuse in the other block of fuses.

Did you have the bike running when you checked for power? Don't remember where the power for the switch came from but it is only to engage the relay which in turn powers the lights. I'm not sure what you are doing for the wiring. The black wire goes to one side of the switch and the grey/green goes to the other. When the switch is engaged the black is connected to the grey/green which pulls in the relay and provides power to the lights.

Yep, I tried the grey/green wire with the bike running. No luck there. I just decided to run my own wiring to my LED lights from the switch, and it works now.
