Headlights and another of other circuits in suzukis are negatively switched.

Power goes from the battery to the fuse, then to the headlights in parallel then to the switch then ground.

Because the headlights are wired together and maybe some other lights, even if you unplug one of them, both sides of the connector will have + power at all times, you would need to disconnect everything in the circuit to stop picking up power on the ground side of the connector.
