I just purchased an '81 900s and there was a problem, where the right headlight would work on high beam, but not low, and the opposite for the driver side headlight, so both never working at the same time. I seem to have fixed the problem by pulling the fuse box, and fiddling with the four fuse connectors underneath until I got both to work (on high beam only, at least its better than nothing). I am hoping someone out there can help me until I can get a hold of a good quality manual that has the wiring diagrams. Any suggestions on manuals? I have been told by at least one guy to stay away from the "Hanes" guides, but other than that I have no idea where to start. A second electrical problem has arisen in that my interior instrumentation light is gone. Again checked the fuses and the connectors underneath but everything seems in place. ... Helpp....would be appreciated. A brake job is beeing planed for this upcoming weeken, pads changed, adjust park brake, purge the brake lines, are there any special tricks to this operation that I should be aware of, special tools, parts other than just the pads?
