Default 92 xj650j headlight

I have a 82 xj650j that the headlight didnt turn on. after checking connections, fused and bulbs...i swaped the relay from a xv750. that was blowing the fuse to the directionals. after putting the right relay back in the headlight now works, but the bike wont start...does anyone have any ideas to why this would happen?
