I have a 2001 FLHTCI where the other day, I noticed that the high-beam indicator is on all of the time, and that the headlight/passing-lights are very bright when they are on low-beam, but they are very dim when I switch to high-beam. When I say dim, I mean as in "(EDIT)
, where am I" type dim. I was riding to work at O:dark-thirty.
I tried putting in a new bulb ("HD High-Performance"), but that didn't seem to do anything except make the low beam a bit brighter. However, until I straightened up the bike, the headlamp didn't come on at all, when it was on low beam. Now it is actually very bright.
Another strange thing is, the passing-lights stay on when the high-beam is "on". They both are very dim, but illuminated.
I just passed rolled past 70K with this bike. Based on some remarks from Hoople, in the "Ignition is on but no Headlights" thread, since moving the forks seemed to have an effect, I am guessing I've got a broken wire somewhere.
