Can you tell us exactly where you spliced, and to what? There are no constant feeds into the headlight shell. The parking lights and the tail light are on one circuit, and the turn signals are on another, with them sharing a common ground. The headlight is on another circuit, all together. The two accessory wires are bundled under the fuel tank (they were on mine, anyway) one is a constant ground one is a constant 12V feed. They are protected with a 10A fuse. Unless you are running a relay (I would, and converted mine as soon as I got it), you should not need to access there constant feed circuits.

I'll poke around in the service manual...I suspect you have connected your wiring to a constant hot source by mistake.

I installed a light bar which required relocating the front turn signals to the light bar.  I wired the light bar per the instructions into the headlight wiring.  I took care during the splicing in the turn signals not to cross wires.  Now I'm not getting power on the blue wire feeding the left turn signal.  Also, now for some reason, the tail light/license plate light stay on even with the key in the off position.
Maybe I'm getting old and short tempered but I'm at the point of ripping out all the wiring stem to stern and installing new.  Before I do that I was hoping one of you members may have experienced similar situations in the past and could lend your knowledge.
Thanks in advance for any assistance one can offer.
