Topic: Headlamp swap, wiring question, white/blue/green now red/yellow/black ??

[eworth]

Hey all,

This will relieve a bit of concern on my project if you all could confirm my headlamp swap which now is a bit different.

My 1977 CB550F headlamp stock is:

White= low beam
Blue  = high beam
Green = ground

New headlamp from a chinese chang jiang has the following headlamp wiring colors:    RED , YELLOW and BLACK

WHICH IS low, high and ground on the new headlamp....   This is to be sure before I accidentally "let the smoke out" of the wires.

Appreciate your help!!
Thanks,
Eworth

Look at how they come out of the plugs, that will give you the match.

Well, I thought that would be also.   But wasn't the case in my case with the Chinese Headlamp assemble from a Chang Jiang.  All is well.  Hooked everything up to a battery and tested with a toggle switch before installing /' re-labeling my colors to make sense of it.
