Hello everyone,
Just bought a 84 bj42 and decided to join the forum, its my first time owning a Landcruiser but have been shopping around for one for a couple years.
Currently working on fixing a few holes in the oil pan with a temporary fix as I will be doing a full restoration come November over a couple years, hopefully less. I also have both headlights not working and I am having trouble figuring it out if anybody could help. I tested all the red/yellow wires from the dimmer relay to headlights and continuity is good, as well as the red/green. I have the 24v live feed coming into the dimmer relay as well, I am suspecting the dimmer relay but was wondering if there is a test i can perform. possibly feeding 12v to pin 4 and listen for the click? All my other lights work perfect, just the headlights are my issue. if i supply 12v to the bulb they work no problem.
I want to be able to drive it for a couple months and figure out what issues it has before embarking on the full restoration.
Also attached pics of the bj42
Thanks,
Jason
