Default I could use some help on this Ness Headlight wiring/color codes!

Thanks in advance!

I want to wire the OEM headlight plug from the OEM headlight to the new Ness headlight but not sure about which wire colors attach to which. Can someone please advise?

As you can see the OEM headlight plug has a white, black, and yellow wire. The Ness Headlight has a white, blue, and green wire.

Black to black. The other two you can easily test. Connect them up black/black, color/color and confirm high/low beams. If they're not right, swap the colored wires.

Can't hurt anything. They're just lights.

but there is no black on the headlight side, only white, blue, and green. I feel stupid.

I'm connecting all the bike wiring now, minus the blinkers and headlight. I'll use a light tester when I get power back to the bike and figure it out. Whats the worst that can happen - blow a fuse?!

Damn, I should learn to read! Sorry.

Ness should feel stupid, not you.

Based on the colors available and an educated guess, I'd agree with Joe above.

Found this thread, hmmmm:

https://www.hdforums.com/forum/dyna-...questions.html

I'll give this a try then:

AN Blue= HD Black / Ground
AN White = HD Blue, Yellow / Low Beam
AN Green = HD Blue White / High Beam

Yup, this is it! I'll solder and heat shrink the wiring tonight, install headlight. Yay for the Dyna!

AN Blue= HD Black / Ground
AN White = HD Yellow / Low Beam
AN Green = HD White / High Beam

Good grief. Why even use colors, Ness? Just save the extra penny and use all black. Sheesh.

Glad you got it sortrd without letting out the magic smoke!
