Lighting coil. 0.19 ohms at 20C on the yellow wire.
Run a black wire from a ground on the frame.

Headlight runs on AC and engine must be running.

Stock headlight had 3 wires, yellow, green, and black. Black was ground. If it's not anymore then maybe that was why original headlight didn't work?
Little blue light (high beam warning) needs a ground wire too and it connects in bucket. If it works (only with engine running), stator must be putting out something and there must be a ground?
This model is a standard 5 3/4" headlight with many options for replacement without cutting up the wiring so hard to help much more as I don't know what you or someone else has done to the wiring and what you're trying to do now.

Black is ground on headlight. I ran a ground to the frame for it. When I get it started back up I'll figure it out. Other headlight wires are correct per wiring diagram. If I was certain of the coil resistance measurement it would help save time. Thanks
