    Hello all!

    I'm helping my mate (JAY.DEE.EM) install his Quad lights and we've come to wiring part...

    The wires on one side are 'Red-Black, Red-Green, Red-Green and Red-Yellow' and on the other they are 'Red-Black, Red-Green, Red-Yellow and Red-Yellow'

    So obviously the 'Red-Black' is earth, easy, so what we need to know is the other colours and also why there is 2 green on one side, and 2 yellow on the other...

    Basically what we want to achieve is to have all 4 lights on when beams are on, and then the 2 outer lights to be High beam.

    Confusing enough? Good. Help please?

    Get a test light and play with your headlight switch. Test lights cost sfa, and you'll use it for other stuff like tracing constant power and accessories when istalling headunits etc...

    I don't get it

    Yesterday when we put the old loom plug into one side, it filled up with smoke and then popped...and we tried again then and the other started to fill up so we stopped so it didn't pop again...

    KE70 lights are not positively switched, So I hope you don't have a constant ground..

    Yes, Which is why I have just scanned the diagrams and are currently in the process of making a FAQ article so you can understand it better. Of course there is always a ground there when the lights are off, Its going to frame back through the filaments (Low and High beam) which are linked to common..
