Title: headlights, who needs em?!?
Post by: dabill on 26 April 2008, 18:01

well me actually.

anyways, been trying to sort the wireing out on the 20v conversion today, and its pretty much all done, apart from the headlights.

side lights work fine, back lights work fine, so does reverse and indicators.

only problem is dipped beam and full beam. i've tried a new headlight switch and thats not done the trick, checked the fuse, not that either, so im thinking, either relay is kaput, or there is some dodgy wires somehwre, only thing is, im not sure which relay to test?

any one know?

i've checked the feed on the headlights witha  circuit tester, and no voltage is getting through at all, so its not a dodgy bulb...

cheers

I would use the circuit tester at the light switch end.

Test to see if there is a voltage feed to the switch. If there is switch the headlight switch on and see if there is voltage coming out of the switch.

Other than that put a 12v feed to the output side of the switch and see if they come on.
