General rule of thumb: When you have strange things happening...CHECK YOUR GROUND CONNECTIONS. :shock:

grounds are good but thats the weird thing if the lights are already working why is it killin my light when i turn on the highbeams i cant see on the wiring diagram where the headlight wires would connect or interfere with the tach and speedo lite?Comment

you have a bad ground for the instrument lamps. they are grounding through the high beam lamp and when you flip to high beam you lose the ground when it becomes positive. kinda like the side markers on the front of chev pick upsGSX1300R NT650 XV535Comment

Bad grounds can cause lights to ground through other lights, and all kind of strange things can happen.
