The high beam relay (1) has been added to the electrical circuit to enable the lights power down strategy. This strategy is as follows:
1. if the lights are on during normal riding, they switch off 60 seconds after pressing the engine Stop button (2) and key ON; they switch back on the moment the motorcycle is started again;
2. if the lights are switched on, they will switch off automatically after 60 seconds after key ON if the engine remains stopped.

If this strategy is not performed, check the correct operation of the various parts involved.
Checking operation of the high beam lights relay
Disconnect the relay (1) from the electrical system and apply 12 V (battery voltage) between contacts (86) and (85) (small contacts): you should hear a click that confirms that the internal electromagnet has switched.
Connect a multimeter to contacts (30) and (87) (big contacts) to check for the full scale reading (analogue tester) or buzzer (digital tester). If this does not occur, the part must be renewed.
