Electrical lighting problem
Hey all. I am getting rather pissed with replacing fuses.
I'll lay out the problem. Try and tell me what you think. When I bought my bike I had the cobra lightbar installed. They wired into the brake / tail light. When one of the spotlights when out. I replaced them both with 55watt sylvanias. Ran that for 8 months and hever had a bit of trouble. When my brake light went out last month, based on forums reccomendation, I went with the 235 instead of stock 1157. Everyone said that would be fine. I just forgot and noone knew that I already had the 55W spots. I blew six fuses within 10 days of riding. Went to Advanced and got stock 1157 buld to put in for the 2357. Here's the kicker, I am now back to the setup that worked for 8 months and have blown two more fuses this week. I also have a a crack in the lens of a spot light and am thinking of replacing them with Sealed beam. Kinda like Trip's amber beams but want good visibility too. Any solutions for my problem? opinion/part number and wattage for sealed beam? By the way, I am not comfortable with trying to rewire the spots differently I, have looked at it and cant see how to do it. I had a hard eough time just doing a direct replacement installing my Stebel horn. Thanks for reading and helping. Login or Register to Remove Ads |
