Headlights won't go off
Greg
If you turn off the headlight switch, you should be removing the 12V to the headlights. Pull the dash out a little and check to see if there is 12V going out when the switch is off. Worst case for now eliminate the 12V to the relays. Then try to troubleshoot how it is getting the 12V. --- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, Greg Young > > Hi folks - > > My headlights just won't turn off. This happened suddenly when I was testing them as we are preparing for a trip. I switched on the lights, and they won't go off. > > I have the relay mod installed. And instead of one relay for low, one for high, I have four relays - two each for each side (1 high, 1 low). Since both low beams are on, it can't be just one of the relays. (though I did try replacing one anyway to no avail) > > At first I thought it was the dashboard headlight switch, so I replaced that but no change. > > I'm pretty sure that somehow I've got a short on the wire from the dash switch to the relay, but I don't see any problems and can't figure out why it would be triggered by turning on the headlight switch. > > Any thoughts very much appreciated. I'm about ready to call in a pro on this one. > > Greg Young > 1986 PT40 Bluefire > Oceanside CA > > > |
