thank you guys for having this site. It has saved me numerous times. The other morning I was going to work, and my bike started fine, then headlight started flickering while turning handle bars while backing up. Then headlight went out and won't come back on. The high beam light indicator stays on. I thought it was the bulb, so I bought a new one and that wasn't the problem. Tried the stuck starter switch and that dont seem to be the problem. So then I pulled the headlight assembly apart and checked the 3 prong headlight bulb harness and noticed i wasn't getting a good ground from the black wire. Should both the green and yellow wires show 12 volts to the plug? Also when the bulb is the harness, the high beam, light is constantly on, even when in low beam mode. And if I take bulb out then the high and low beam functions properly. Is there a way to check these bulbs to see if they are good or not? I tried using a trickle charger and hooked up ground on bulb and the positive to one of the sides of bulb but it didn't work.
