If there is a bad (disconnected or internally broken wire in the bar), Here is your fix!!!

Get a bicycle rear gear change cable (not the plastic part, just the stranded inner cable, used is great)

Find the wires coming out of the light bar near the post, and clean the tape and whatever insulation is on them so the wire is bare for 1/2" going to both lights (do not pull them out)

Use a blue crimp tube (electrical connector that joins two 12 gauge wires with a crimp pliers).

Remove the blue plastic insulator and use only the metal sleeve.

Crimp the end of the bike cable into one end of the connector and the wire going left into the other. Be firm with the crimp tool (if you do not own one buy a 8-10 dollar plier, not cheap, you need it any way).

Pushing on the bike cable while simultaneously pulling and finessing, wiggeling and flexing the lamp end will snake the old wire out. Put a new piece of #12 wire on the cable using the same method but a new crimp sleeve.

Pull one end, and push the other till through the hole. Do not force anything, pulling the wire in half will cause fishing.

Do the other side the same way.

Put crimp connectors and eyelets on the wires to fininsh the job. I like to put 1.25" of shrink tubing over the crimp connectors to add strength and for finnish.
Good luck, JimN
