Hi guys,
I´m didn´t find some easy solution how to reconnect righ hadle bars switch at my GT 535 (2016 from AHO) to classical with parking and headligh switch (BS4 to BS3).
At Youtube you can find Indian´s remedy, but collours of my GT 535 are little bit diferent than Bullet 500 UCE..

I´m found some "connection"cable which can connect without any cable reconnection

I hope I understand what you're trying to do.
   The right hand switch is already connected. Don't do anything with it.
SinghG5's video shows exactly what you need to do to make the headlight switched.
Remove the 'jumper'. Watch the video.

Dear Guaire,

but I haven´t any "jumper" cable in my GT and headlight is on when ignition is on (and and when battery isn´t in good condition you have problems..)
GT originally has right hand bars switch without light operating switch (it has AHO), but I want convert it for manual switching lights.
I´m ordered whole new handle bar switch, where is more cables that original (more switchs inside), but some haven´t oposite side pin in connector..(or different colour)

I think that for manual switching headlight I will need "jumper" cable.. :-\

My GT was bought in Italy and it was produce 3/2016, but I'm not sure how can recognize for which market was produce ( by VIN probably, I will check)

My understanding is only the US market bike had the removable dongle in the headlight nacelle.

The US fix was pretty easy. Remove the short 3-4 inch long jumper cable with the two white connectors, and plug together the two remaining red connector ends. This jumper cable is inside the headlight bucket.

The connection cable that you show in your original post is the part that you remove to make the switch active….do not buy this.
