Re: Another /6 Electrical Question
Don't attach fairing yet
Good chance 3 of the problems noted
Tail light
Headlight
Parking light in headlight
are all related to the headlight relay
If your friend cant find spare

Does your new EMI diagram have the internal details of the headlight relay in the headlight shell ?
Mine just shows pin #'s
I do have them on the B/W diagram and will pass that on if needed

Re: Another /6 Electrical Question
Thank you Mr B. Good to know that one will work, B2B, EME, and others are a bunch more $$. Ordered... was about to make an Amazon order anyway. I'll check for those pin numbers and let you know.wa1nca wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2024 5:03 pmGood chance 3 of the problems noted are all related to the headlight relay

Re: Another /6 Electrical Question
The relay internal diagram is shown on the side of the relay as well as the standard relay terminal labels, 85, 86, 87, 87a, & 30. The one I've got coming in has the wiring diagram and names the terminals 85, 86, 87, 87b, & 30. With that info as well as the wire color for each, I should be in good shape. I'll know tomorrow.

Re: Another /6 Electrical Question
The pin out numbers and colors are correct for the Relay Headlight Socket but doesn't show the internals like the same 5 pin starter relay
Hope you get your part today
Looks like the headlight and starter relay are interchangeable

ps:
I copied the R90s wiring diagram from Snowburms reference in the our forums library

Re: Another /6 Electrical Question
I have lights! Headlight; both hi and lo beam as you would expect/hope. I also have a tail light, as you would expect/hope. And parking lights, but unfortunately I have parking lights ALL THE TIME even w/ the key off and no matter the headlight switch position, as long as the battery is hooked up! Guess I've got to check to make sure the switch is working correctly and that the wires from the switch are plugged into the correct places. I suppose it could be something in the ignition switch or could it be something w/ the new relay I just put in?
I'm not sure if I'm partially successful or not successful. Maybe it's a "glass half-full or half-empty" situation. Under normal circumstances I fall into the half-full category. Maybe I got it working but now it works too well.

Re: Another /6 Electrical Question
Other than that, check the places the gray, and gray/black wires are plugged into, something may be off. Good luck, St.
