Handlebar Mounted Switch
 |
I am not sure what
should be in this spot on the right handlebar switch housing and since
it is such a nice flat space, it deserves to be occupied. After taking
the cover apart, one can see that there is enough room for a small DPST
or a DPDT switch. I only need to have a way to complete the circuit to
the input for the relay on the Hella FF50 driving lights so they turn on
and off. This is the perfect spot and there is plenty of room for a
small switch. |
 |
Carefully snake the
wires into the switch housing though the same hole the other cables
enter through, This connection only provides +12v to the trigger input
on the relay so we aren't pulling much current so we can get away
with some pretty small wires, which was a blessing in this case unless
you want to route the main cable entry hole in the side of the switch
housing. |
 |
I put a wrap of
electrical tape around the end of the switch. in the event of a random
and unexpected short. |
 |
After reassembly,
this is the result. The switch is positioned so that turning the switch
on, you click it to the right and off is to the left. I also put a small
rubber washer between the nut and the housing as a weather strip. |
