Just rebuilt the forks and installed the proper headlight ears on my early fastback. WHen i put everything back together, the headlight/pilot light no longer worked. After scratching my head for a while, i took apart and cleaned the toggle switch. There were actual cobwebs in there so i thought ...heh maybe that was it. NOPE. Started chasing stuff down and figured out there was a wiring harness ground not hooked up. Hooked the ground up and POW everything works. So i'm like...why did it work before with those stamped steal headlight ears and not with the proper painted ears.....thats all that changed. The only thing i can figure is that it was actually grounding from the frame to the trees to the forks to the headlight ears to the housing to one of the grounds in the headlight bucket. CRAZY!
