lights on - lights off

[swampcat]

Need electrical help. polaris 600 cfi. Want to put a switch to shut off ALL lights & only lights. Need to be able to go into BLACKOUT mode on occasion, dont ask. Maybe after lighting coil,before it gets to bulbs. Thanks for any ideas.

you would have to interrupt the power before it gets to the switch for the headlight. The switch changes the + voltage for the high/ low beam. The tail light is circut is not affected by the headlight circut, so it would have to be interrupted on its way to the tailight. If you cut the power at the stator, you also loose instrument lighting and hand/ thumb warmers. A DPST switch should do the trick (double pole single throw) I Dont want to know why....

Put a quick disconnect plug at the h/lamp and tail lamp. Unplug when need to.
