Hey everyone, recently got Daytona Triumph 675r 2014. One night i decided to take it out but realized the headlights never turned on. Running light runs fine during the day and at night. I replaced the bulb thinking it was it, but at night it does not still turn on. I replaced fuses, check the wiring i could find and made sure connections were in tact. HighBeam work fine, all other lights work fine. Dashboard lights all light up, nothing else seems to be wrong other then lights no turning on at night. This bike is supposed to have a automatic sensor to tell the lights to turn on, maybe that's busted? Thanks in advance!

The low-beam is always on. If yours is not then not sure what the problem is. There is no day/night detector.

What about your high-beam?

oh ok. nothing but the middle running light is on, this light is not connected to the headlights. When I turn on the bike none of the two headlights come on, and when I flip the headlight dipswitch to turn low beam to high beam, the high beam comes on and the light on the dashboard lights up.

The starter relay has a built in switch that cuts off power to the low beams when the start button is pushed to reduce the load on the battery when the starter is cranking. Could be a fault in the relay, might try swapping in another one to rule this out.

Don't think this is an adequate explanation to why a headlight wouldn't be coming on.

Your low beam is out. Figure out if it's the bulb and then move forward from there.

Also there is no "light sensor" the low beam should always be on. Are you saying the low beam has not been on ever? Cause if so that points even more to the bulb just being burned out
