Spotlights fitted, low beam issue (4 Viewers)

[Straightfarkin]

Hello

I have fitted Stedi spotlights, and wired them to a Switch Boss old toyota style switch.

When I turn the low beams on, the high beams come on with them. But the high beam blue light on the dash does not illuminate. When I then put high beams on, the blue light illuminates but not much changes as everything is already on.

The spotlights have a piggy back jumper supplied by stedi that goes into the high beam bulb. I have ran this positive to the switch. The switch also has a ground and dash light illumination wire which are both supplied by the dash dimmer on the driver side.

I can not figure out what I have done wrong. The power in this circuit only comes in from the high beam piggy back connector.

Disconnecting the piggy back connector does not change anything other than that bulb obviously not working.

Any help appreciated, cheers

on my 80, the positive to the low, hi, and dash indicator are all fed by the headlight relay. so it shouldn't matter where you picked up power for the aux lights. hi bulbs and indicator grounds are tied together, so i'm failing to understand how your hi's are working without the indicator.

do you want to be able to switch the new lights on any time? independent of the low beam or hi beams? does the stedi harness come with is own relay? does everything work properly with the stedi's disconnected?

The Aussie headlight wiring is different than the USDM. The schematic was posted on this forum a few weeks back.
