Headlights

[dnoel]

O.K. This has officially bothered me. I seem to have crossed something up on my headlights during reassembly of my car after paint. When I have the low beams on the dash indicates the the high beams are on. When the high beams are on the dash say the low beams are on. Thanks for reading.

Did you cross up the high beam sockets with the low beam.

Did you cross up the high beam sockets with the low beam.

Dont know if its possible because I think the high beams have three prongs and low beams only have two. Did you put the headlights in the wrong hole of the bezel?

 

[turbojd]

Low beam has three prongs also

If my memory is correct the socket with the tan or brown wire is for "low beam" the socket with the "green wires" is for high beam.

Uncross them. Fixed. Next!

Thank you, I'll check the connectors when I get home. I'll post when I get it fixed.

If you leave the ground off the Right front fender the High beam indicator will be on (Ask me how I know)

Been busy, like everyone else but I did cross the the headlights the high beams are outboard, low beams inboard. The low beams have 2 prongs and the high beams have 3. I didn't have time to swap them, but after I get birthday parties and whatever else I got to get done around the house I will swap them around and see what happens.
