I am in the process of replacing the wiring in my MK III.
A pilot light is of no use in my local area (mandatory headlamp, been stopped before trying to run with pilot only).
If I wanted the headlamp to be on regardless of the position of the head/pilot switch (when the ignition switch is set to Ign & Lights position), and
I switched to a Bosch (Swedish version) H4 lens without pilot hole (45/40W bulb), and I wanted to preserve the pilot light wiring against use in the future;
should I:
a. Jumper between the Blue/Yellow and the Blue wires in the R-hand switch, or
b. Leave it open between the Blue/Yellow and the Blue?
I think the answer is (a), but reading and comprehending a wiring diagram was never one of my strong points (if indeed I have any).
thanks,
lee
P.S. Is there some reason I should not do what I'm suggesting? BTW, this is just to get the bike running again, I expect to eventually go to a relay setup.
