Halo head lamp help!!

[ForsakenLash]

I posted this as a sub help question in another thread but never got a full solution, so im hoping someone in here can help me.

I purchased my Eclipse and it has Halo projectile LED headlamps in it, now the problem is, the brights only work when the knob is turned to the running lights and I have to hold the knob in. Im assuming they are wired wrong.

So what im looking for is a proper wiring diagram to make it so I can click the brights on and off when the low beams are on. I would wire it so they are always on, but the stock bulbs were replaced with a much brighter bulb and I would end up blinding everyone

Anyone that can explain it too me? all the wiring diagrams ive looked up I dont understand .. which is why im not an electrician

Ok, so after doing a little more looking I can give some more information as to how the Halos are wired currently.

The lowbeams with the halo have a blue and black wire coming out of the rubber housing, blue being the positive. The high beams have a red and black wire coming out of them, red being the positive. there is a green wire that comes up and meets the blue wire and then a red, green, and black go into a wiring harness that connects to a harness connecting to another harness and running up the wheel well off into the unknown.

Now I know if I connect all the positives together then the highs and lows will run at the same time, but the highs are too bright due to the bulbs to have running at the same time.... so any idea on how i can make it do it all works like stock highs and lows would work?

Wire a toggle switch for the brights. You'll need to run a wire into the vehicle for the source on the switch. Other than that, it's straight forward.

If this is one of those Ebay style projectors, I hope you're not using the high beams on the road way.
- They are almost never aimed properly to begin with.
- They also are strictly there for "inspection purposes only."
Meaning: only to be used to pass the "I have high beams" for signaling to other drivers and so forth.
- Although on rare occasion, some come with at least a basic level adjustment.
Enough to produce a useable high beam on back roads.

Either way, as stated, a toggle switch will help you easily accomplish your goal of having a separate high beam function apart from your low beams.

well I was just out there fiddeling with the wiring and I tried putting all the positives together and still no difference. But I also noticed something... what I thought were the highbeams clicking on when the switch is just for running lights is the same lamp for the lowbeams (the lamp with the Halo around it). which means the inner lamps without the halo arent working at all. The bulbs look good, so im completely at a loss here.

on the back of the lamp are quick connects to plug the wire to the metal piece sticking out. the positive is on the center post and the negative on the outer post, is this correct? Should I swap the wires for the halo lamp and non halo lamp and see if that makes a difference?

as for the toggle switch, should I just wire it directly to the battery or would I need to wire it to the fuse box?


Edit: I actually pulled the bulbs out and they are blown... so thats gotta be the problem .... looks like im buying some new H1's
