Hello everyone. Since I have been waiting on a "new" lower thermostat housing since mine broke, I decided to wire my headlights back how they should be.
When I was trying to figure out what wires were what at the headlight connector since I had an issue that I could of fixed with a single bolt I didnt know there was supposed to be a bolt at this location or if it was missing so the electrical connection to the passenger under hood fuse and relay box wasnt getting a connection so I had made an entire wiring harness just for the lights on toggle switches.
The issue comes in though that the high beam wire had voltage going to it without the high beam switch being activated. I dont know how much voltage exactly, its not enough to turn the bulb on but it is enough to turn on the high beam indicator light on the gauge cluster.
I cant a good enough wiring diagram and the Haynes book that I have doesnt really go into detail and I would just like suggestions on where to start looking. I might try a few things after work tomorrow, but all that I did was reconnect the wires that I had cut. There has to be a power jump somewhere, just dont know where it could be. Its not in the headlight since it was happening when the connector wasnt connected to the headlight itself.
Any tips or thoughts is appreciated.
