Gday guys, I have had enough of random headlight issues with my hj61 ever since I bought it, so have decided to make up a new loom (just for the outer high/low H4 globes at this stage), but am unsure of the correct way to wire it into the existing circuit.... I have spent the last couple of days confusing myself even further by looking on Google, and reading plenty of methods that supposedly work - until someone comments that it is incorrect... I am hoping that someone here can give me a bit of help with getting it done correctly...
I am intending on using 2 x relays - 1 for the high beam and one for the low beam. Both fused to the battery. I have used 6mm wire to go from the high beam pin on the globe to the high beam relay (pin 87), 6mm wire for the common pin on the globe to negative on the battery, and 5mm wire from the low beam pin on the globe to the low beam relay (pin 87).
The battery + via a fuse to pin 30 on each relay.
Now for the switching.... this is where my knowledge gets all confused!!
Can I put a male plug into the existing headlight loom and for the high beam run wires from the common and high plugs to pins 85 and 86 on the high beam relay, and for low go from the common and low beam to pins 85 and 86 on the low beam relay???
Here are a couple of pics of what I have so far, but any guidance would be greatly appreciated!!
