builtshee Posted May 2, 2006 Report Share Posted May 2, 2006 Just picked up a used banshee and the previous owner put on a pair of TT bar lights. I'm trying to figure out what he did to the wiring. For some reason the stock location lights are always on even when the switch is in the off position. When I go to low or high beam both lights come on no problem. What I want is stock off low beams and both running off highs. Anyone have any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98bonerSTOCKshee Posted May 2, 2006 Report Share Posted May 2, 2006 the best bet is to get a clymers manual, the wiring diagram is in there... is the stock on/off switch still there? Sounds as if it may be by passed if the stock lights are on? follow the wires from the stock lights and see where they go.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cutiegirlracing Posted May 2, 2006 Report Share Posted May 2, 2006 (edited) Provided the stock wiring is not too messed up. Wire your low beam wire (green wire) off the stock lights to the green wire coming off the light switch. Then wire the black wire to a ground (any black wire). This provided everything else is okay will give you low beams on your stock lights. For wiring the aftermarket lights and the high stock lights to work off the high on the switch. Wire the lead off the after market to the high beam wire (yellow wire) off the light switch, then wire the yellow off the stock light to the same wire and the ground off both to a ground (black wire). You shouldn't have to ground any of the lights because the lights should already be grounded. I'm guessing the stock lights if you follow them are wired to a yellow or yellow/red. You'll want to take it off this wire. This is the main hot wire for the bike. Also make sure your stator can handle the extra lights.

01banshee09ltr Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 I ended up using a small battery to power the lights with a regular light switch to control power/also through a few leds in the motor bay being that the motor is polished, at night it will hopefully look cool. I bought the banshee with an absoluty molested wiring harness so i didnt want to dig into it. This was my first forum question i have ever posted on BansheeHQ and i appreciate all the help.
