You really need to know what voltage it's putting out! As it can produce some but not enough to put the light out! Have you got the wires all going to the correct places! Have you trapped the loom in the head? Or something else? Lots of options. If you un plug the ignition feed lo it (small wire) the light should go out, earth it it should come on. If it don't go out you've done something wrong
