Kelum Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Hi I replaced Headlight's bulb with a Xenon bulb which gave a very bright beam two days ago, but last night when I was riding at night it blew off..both filaments burned out..is it possible for some electrical problem the leads can bring a higher voltage to the bulb?....thank you people..

Paulwhite Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 if anything it will be a short in the electrics, are the fuses ok? and what volt fuses have you got? also did you get the right power bulbs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bulb was a 12V/60-55W Xenon one..Yes fuses are ok, I should check all once again.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh seems thats the case, Xenon bulbs require more amperage? I put a Halogen one with same wattage..it still works (since yesterday )Will check fuses..but if the Xenon drew more current fuse should blow out right, but fuse seems to be ok as the second bulb still lights up...
