The warning light on the dash is done by resistance. I fitted some ice white l.e.d. sidelights, amd now its on even though the lights work.

Cant remember what the extra wire does, but the warning light should still function normally with Morettes fitted.

i think the extra wire has something to do with the 6 volt feed when using conventional headlights on the sidelight setting with the ignition on
