The starter switch is designed to cut off power to the headlight when pressed.


This is a dual action switch which means when not pressed it makes a connection to the headlight so it's on, when pressed the connection is to the starter.

The contacts there can get gummed up and prevent the headlight coming on.


Take the throttle assembly apart and spray contact cleaner into the switch while pushing it in and out.
