Default Headlight not working?



My dyna was dead after we had a cold snap, so I threw the trickle charger on it. Fired it up, and noticed the headlight isn't working. It works on bright, but not on dim. Suggestions? Do I need a new headlight? If so, I might go ahead and get an LED any advice on LED lights? Thanks.

Truck lite does not make that size headlight. Probably just the bulb. Looking for excuse to get led go for it. No regrets worth every penny.

I know I can replace the bulb cheaper, but an LED would be badass...

I just noticed the chrome Bobcat, nice! When opportunity knocks you don't make it wait at the door, order a Daymaker from Surdyke; Chop Chop!
