Touching the bulb with your fingers will do that or moisture getting in the fixture will cause that. Your not supposed to touch the glass when handling the lamp, make sure the seals or boots are in good condition and fit right."I'm sorry, I didn't mean to upset you when I called you stupid.

You need to verify voltage first, test the voltage at the lamp plug, raise the rpm to about 2500-3000 and watch the voltage. What is the peak voltage? Over 14v?"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to upset you when I called you stupid. I thought you already knew..."

yes, you are right. When i raised the rpm 3500-4000 and the voltage is 14.26 v.
Any idea because I have had replaced a bulb twice and it still turned in black after while. I have checked headlight housing as well to see any open, but nothing wrong with the headlight housing. Light socket and rubber cover is good as well. Can you please help me. Thank you very much.

Kats have alternators so, yes they have a regulator. The orange wire going to the alternator is the regulators control voltage it should read battery voltage, if it drops the alt output will rise."I'm sorry, I didn't mean to upset you when I called you stupid. I thought you already knew..."

This... and it's a very common issue for the voltage to drop so there is overcharging on the Kat.

Start tracing the Orange wire, it terminates at the fuse box. Check there first and go forward."I'm sorry, I didn't mean to upset you when I called you stupid. I thought you already knew..."

Yea and it has a good connection all the way from the battery to the alternator."I'm sorry, I didn't mean to upset you when I called you stupid. I thought you already knew..."
