Dylan it's easy.

White is high beam 'cause it's the lightest.
Yellow is low beam 'cause it's not quite as bright.
Grey is for parking lights 'cause it's the dullest.
Brown is for earth 'cause brown is earth colour.

I've gotta look after the Port Macquarie blokes!

Thanks Mate! (:

I'll remember that now and sort this shit out this arvo. I Have a bad earths so im going to run better earths and also change the terminals at the bulbs cause they 35 year old and cracked.

if you have a kick switch on the floor make sure your wire are not loose!!!

Hey Dylan, is the relay still bouncing around unsecured?
Make sure none of the wires have come off.

Dylan, the boss is away this weekend - if you still need a hand then, give me a holler.

Hi Dylan

This might help, also make sure the bulbs are working, the low beams do the most work and most likely to fail.

Start at the headlights have you mucked with the wiring


DylanTheDubber - February 28th, 2012 at 06:36 PM

Okay,

No i havent butthe terminals and wires are original and 37 or sumthing years old so previous people coulda mucked wiv it. The RHS had voltage drop and problems but the wires and terminals were replaced so now its probs time for the left side to do the same.
