WIRING QUESTION - HELP PLEASE - AUX LED SPOTS INTO HIGH BEAM??

[Aviacom]

Hi,

I have a 2012 GS and would like to put a pair of aux LED spotlights that I have unused on my light bar, and somehow wire them into the High beam circuit.

I'd like to do this as I ride daily down single track lanes from the village at night and really like to have this in the bikes arsenal!

I've tried this afternoon to do this but each time I switch on the high beam with the LED spots, I get a 'LAMPF' error and I have to switch off ignition and restart bike, etc.

What's wrong with it please? How do I solve it and connect them up?

I know it sounds stupid, but can someone do me a quick diagram please?

Many Thanks in advance.

Run the spotlights via a relay and use the main beam to trip the relay and that should solve your problem.

Is it possible for a diagram please?

The relay you need is a standard 4 pin wired as follows

Terminal 30 - positive supply from battery via a fuse holder.
Terminal 87 - will supply positive to your new lights.
Terminal 86 - from your main beam to operate the relay.
Terminal 85 - earth.

Some of this drawing may help you

It's to fit HIDs to an early 1200rt + auxiliary HIDs.
Bottom left hand corner is the auxiliary HIDs,
Just use this basic part of the drawing.
Splice into the high beam circuit with the relay coil connection.
Drawing shows this area as well.

Take your main beam signal from the three wire lead that goes to the headlight.
Yellow = dip
White = main
Brown = earth

If you want a more effective main beam, use a pair of pencil beam spots. The OEM main beam is not angled high enough so when dip is correct you still get more foreground light than you need. The spots fill in the long range gap.
LED bulbs are now up to the task of replacing the halogens but don't solve the beam separation issue.
