problems with headlight!

hi, my nc35 had been modified with a switch that can control the headlights (on/off) by the previous owner

it has been working fine for quite abit, however recently it failed...

i thought it was the simple problem of the switch fuse melting. i brought it to a few mechanics for their diagnostics

one of them told me that i could just change the switch. another one told me i had to change my right-hand starter switch or my entire electrical system could fail as it controls the current going through the bike...

any thoughts on this? i thought the electrical starter was just for starting the bike?

i dont really trust the mechanics in my town as they have more passion for money rather than bikes...

Yeh I have an idea, why don't you open the switches up to start with and have a look!
