And the after Effect.

I switched the 2 wires shown in picture. The wire colores were green and red by the way if this helps now green is at the top and red is to the right(looking at where the bulb plugs in).

I don't know about the wiring on your's, but on my 89. The high is light green, low is tan, and ground is black.

Ok sounds right the red might be tan it was dark out , and on yours the green is it 2 wires going into the connector? I am pretty sure I have the high/low wires backwards giving the info you gave me thanks a lot Trickster!
