Dim/dip Wiring

I'm wiring in the headlights on my DOHC kit. They work!!!!!!

I'm using the old Twin Cam seirra loom

There are 4 wires to the LHS light .No problems.

There are 5 wires on the RHS. The 4 Wires are the same and the lights all work.

The 5th wire is for the dim/dip side of things.

Do i need this for SVA and assuming that i do, how do i wire it into the standard Robin Hood lights?

 

I'm not much of an auto electrician as you can tell

 

Any advice most welcome.

Mark,

 

Here is a copy of a mail for the drivers headlight.

 

Note- the earth is separate for side light and head light

 

Brown - Earth - for sidelight only

Grey and red - Side light - power for sidelight

Yellow - Dip beam - power for dip beam

White - Main beam - power for main beam

Blue Green - earth from headlight - to dim dip relay (Item 34) connection 38. This is then gives an

earth through 87A when ignition on and dip or main beam are selected, (power

from fuses 1 & 2 or 3 & 4). Or 12 volts from fuse 17 when sidelights selected

and then finds its earth through the otherside dip beam ( 2 bulbs in series

hence dim dip).

 

Hope this helps
