Default Batwing Headlight Problem

I have a 2020 Street Glide Special that came with an LED headlight when I bought it last year. I don't know if it's a Harley Daymaker or aftermarket. My brother gave me his Custom Dynamics headlight after he totaled his Street Glide Special. One of my coworkers just bought a 2021 Street Glide Standard and hated the headlight, so I gave him the one that was on my bike. He said that when he plugs it in, only the high beam works. Has anyone else had this happen, and what is a possible fix?

Not sure exactly but I tink your Special I think came factory with a LED headlight but I know my Standard ( my 2023 ) came with the old school and dim quartz halogen headlight.
I ordered a Eagle Lights brand LED replacement and it was plug -n- pay but I think I remember an adapter already heat shrink inline so it would be plug-n-play.
I wonder if you are missing a needed adapter? Shame you can't tell what brand it is as you could call the company.
Perhaps someone else will know what that adapter might be?
