there is a connector in the headlight wiring harness that connects two red-orange connectors. remove this jumper and connect the red-orange ones together. voila! headlight switch you can control all by yourself. question authority!

His videos are detailed, easy to follow and well done. He knows his stuff, does good research and good work. If he worked in IT I would ask for his resume because the place I work needs people who are that detail oriented, bright and efficitent.

That would just be a waste of great talent.

I hope so too.  I've learned more about my RE from his videos than any other single source.  A long thread of love for singhg5 is a great way to say thanks for all the hours he's put in to the videos.

Just went out to the garage and took out the white connector/red-replug as the vid indicated. . Took about 10 minutes max. Hardest part was finding my good Phillips head that was hiding out back at a previous project. Yeah, I'm still working on putting my tools away, but, , , getting better. Sweet fix!!!

My heartfelt thanks to all you guys for your genuine appreciation and love. 

Didn't someone say 'RE people are good people' - they give / receive / share their enthusiasm freely as you are doing now ;).
