Voltage is supplied to the headlight dimmer switch at all times. The headlight switch includes a self-resetting circuit breaker. The circuit breaker opens when the headlight circuit draws too much current. When the circuit breaker opens, current flow is interrupted. With no current flow, the circuit breaker cools and resets automatically. When the headlight switch is in HEAD, the headlight dimmer switch directs voltage to LOW BEAM or HIGH BEAM. The HIGH BEAM indicator also receives voltage along with the high beams.
