I assume the switch is turned on - pull the headlight and check the white Molex connectors - has the bike been apart lately? Those connectors cannot come apart on their own.

Make sure the switch is on for the passing lamps and make sure the headlight switch is on LOW beam. If it is on highbeam the passing lamps dont work without doin a lil bypassing in the wiring. If this is the problem PM me and I will send ya a wiring diagram to do the bypass if your interested. Hope this helps.

WehnI put the passing lamps on my '05 rk custom, I ran into a a situation where I connected the black conector and thought I was good. Still no lights. Being that my bike does not come standard with these lights, I did some searching of wires. Turns out there is a second connector near the switch that also must be attached. I say, if your bike didn't have the lights to begin with, make sure that both the black connectors are attached. Just my 0.02 cents
