Hella installation
Hey guys.. i need help with the wires the headlamps! I have already wired everything to the relay and to the switch.. but there is one wire that is suppose to connect from the switch to one of the wires going to the headlight! I want to connect it to the regular driving lights.. but i have tested all three wires and they did not work. There is a Black/Green which i realized was for the high beams.. the Black/Yellow also turned on the high beams and when i went for the black/blue.. the fuse would alwasy blow once i turn the switch on! From the relay, i have a ground.. a power, a wire to the switch and wires from the hellas. THe switch i have one coming from the relay and one grounded. Is there anyway to turn the hellas on without the third wire from switch to headlights? because i have tried that and they never came one.. only came on when connected to high beams!!!! I have searched online.. even at the hella website.. and it looks easy but i just cant figure wich wire to connect to the headlights! Please reply, THANKS YOU!!! :cry: Oh yeah.. how did you guys mount on the hellas evenly on the bumper???

you can connect that last wire to the parking lights....that'll enable you to turn them on when the parking lights are on....what I did when I had mine was wire it directly to the positive terminal on the battery...I also fused it as close to the battery as I can...that way I could turn them on whenever I wanted

You can also wire up the Hella lights so you can turn them on at anytime.

No need to use the headlights like Hella says in their instructions.
