Highbeams

Hey I was wondering if anybody knew what the color of the wires coming of the highbeam switch was on a 92 4runner? I need to run a new power wire to it and there are a mess of wires I have searched online for diagrams but haven't been able to find any of the ones I need Please help I'm tired of havin to hold the switch back in the flash to pass

You might have a problem with the headlight dimmer switch itself, see:

Yeah it's a fuse problem but it has nothing to do with with high beams. I just want to know how to run power to the leads on the switch

High and low beams share a common power connection. Then the switch grounds the high or low beam filament to make it turn on. So if low beams work fine and the flash mode works fine, then the problem is likely the switch, as noted above. BTDT.
