Lo beams not working
My hi beams I believe (the 2 inner lights) do not go on. I even bought a new headlight today and put it in. I pull the light switch all the way, then pull the turn signal lever, and nothing. I tried every possible way and they do not go on.

Re: Lo beams not working
The inner lights are the hi-only beams. The outter pair is switchable between low beams and high beams.
Your lo/hi beam switch might be out of adjustment, judging from your description. Try this tech article: http://www.austinthirdgen.org/index.php?pid=16
Sometimes it helps to tilt the steering wheel all the way up or down when switching the beams.
Hope this helps.

Odd. On that page you showed me, the switch it blue/white, but mine is all white?

Re: Lo beams not working
on the plug at the headlamp its self...i dont believe that it is a switch issue. There should a ground wire that comes out of the harness and goes to the core support

Re: Lo beams not working
Before I go crazy tracing it, where exactly does the harness begin under the hood?
