Default Led headlight issue
I dont know if this is the right forum so I apologize if it isnt. I have an aftermarket led headlight and when I write it up I have either no low beam or no high beam depending on how I wire it. Plug it in one way high but no low. The other low but no high. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

I'm all for cheap but send the 90-100 bucks and get a sunpie off amazon with the adapter patch wire like I did for my 19 FLHX. Works like a charm and plug and play.

Actually brother that's ine of the ones I have, it came with the led bus (3 inch black box) still had to buy an adapter to make it plug and play but it still has the same issu . Doesnt matter if the led bus is used or if I leave it out.

Works fantastic for me and many many others.
It will work just fine for him also as soon as he gets it wired right.
