hey Tricsta or anyone .. i fixed most of my light problems but .?

I got a new front light "low beam", new bulbs, put on the thirdbrake light on the highrise spoiler, got a new relay for the turn signals.. it ticks alittle slow but it works fine... im just confused about my high beam and low beam .. its messed up! the inner lights never light up! just the outer lights stay lit.. i then flick the high beam and they act as highbeams and get brighter AHH!!! wth.. help me here thanks:lala:

Well the inner bulbs are the high beam bulbs and are only supposed to come on when you hit the high beam switch. The outter bulbs are dual beam headlights that are supposed to get brighter when you hit the high beam switch. If the inner bulbs aren't coming on, you might want to check the wiring connections. Particularly the grounds.

Usually to the frame above the headlights inside the engine compartment.
