2003 Honda 400EX headlight problem


Recommended Posts

I finally got around to installing my headlight bulbs among other atv chores. One head light bulb blew and the other came apart. I ordered 2 bulbs from ebay but the seller had mostly positive feedback. After my chores and lastly putting in the bulbs the left side is low

beam only and the right side is high beam only. What am I missing??

The bulbs appeared to have 2 filaments. I have the wiring diagram in front of me and it shows one wire for low and one wire for hi and then the two bulbs are wired in parallel. so if one is on low the other one is too and vice versa.

The quad is in the tow vehicle and isnt easy to move because I have no rims on it. When I put them on ill take the front plastic off. For now anyone have any idea??

Ebay Bulbs?

Wiring?

ground?

its hard 2 say... the bulbs are fairly cheap an i would try another set 2 see if thats the prob... an if it is then that an easy fix... if not then you will have to go through the steps of checking the light sockets with a test light an see what's up .. an then go from there an see what else ya can come up with..

They have one tab which makes em not sit perfectly flush. I might take that tab off. I dont have a factory bulb to compare the two. I do know the dealer charges 17 per bulb and i bought these for 1.50 each

You might be right maybe one is only touching the low beam terminal and the other is touching the highbeam terminal. When i get the tires back on i will take the front off and make sure everything is making contact.

      Hi everyone,
      Outlander 2006 400 XT i have replace the startor cover and right after i did that the oil light is on and not turn off, i check the wires and checked the oil level, everything seem to be normal quad is starting without any problem and rev just fine. i did not want to ride it since im not sure if it is faulty sensor or not so just be safe i did not let it run more the a minute or so. 
      I have read in the owner manual that i need to clean the oil strainer every 200hr unfortunately i never did that, my service manual that i have does not even indicate of such a thing. so i did some search around and it seem like canam split the manual into 3 parts
      owner manual
      service manual
      engine manual
      I have the first 2 but i can not find the last one, part number 219100232. If someone can guide me where do i find the oil strainer so i can clean it i will appreciate it.   im going to do an oil pressure test tomorrow to check how many PSI i have, just to make sure.
      Thanks

      Hey all back again with my 1989 moto 4 250.
      After putting a new carb on it it's really sputtery, it has new gas and I'm wondering what to tune on the carb to make it idle better. I've attached a video to describe the issue more. The bike is still work in progress but I think the video gets the point across. Thanks!

      Does anyone use GPS, whether on a device or app to record their ATV trail rides? I have been thinking about a section where our members can upload let's say a .gpx file and share their rides on a google map for others to see where there are riding areas. Not sure if this is something of interest or how much it would be used, so just trying to get an idea.
      Importing routes from files like xml, lmx, tour, freshroute, gpx, kmz, kml
