I got away with using the front upper valence as earth, in the end. Found what the problem was, it was a faulty scotch-lock connection to the headlight circuit.
The switch doesn't light up, but the spots work fine on main beam.
Thanks for all your help guys!

Did that, still not working. I did use that panel, though, and now you've got me thinking. Will extend to a known, used earth tomorrow. The only things left after that are the relay is duff or I'm a complete spaz at 12v systems. :\

I'm thinking I need to get those lamps grounded \m/

Good point, but if that were the case they would be well grounded as they are screwed to the upper front valence (part of the body behind grill). I chopped little sections out of the grill to do it.
Right now, I'm a bit stumped. hmm
May have to investigate again in the morning, but trying to think of where to check first.

Right.
Everything is wired up the way I thought it ought to be.... doesn't work.
Two things I've noticed that might be causing the problems.
1) The spots have no earth facility. I have used a pair like that on another vehicle, though and they earthed through the relay, so may not be that.
2) The switch I am using is illuminated and the poles on the back are not really telling me enough. Two lives and two neutrals? again no ground.

Any ideas?

Hi
I was wondering if anyone knows what colour the Main Beam wire at the switch/stalk end might be? I want to splice in for the switch for the spots relay. Everything else is done and I'm going to use the method through the wing (as mentioned elsewhere on here) to feed through to the cockpit.
I can't find a decent schematic with colours detailed.

Thanks!

I think this just saved my spot light wiring woes, too. Cheers!
If anyone happens to know what colour the main beam wire from the back of the switch/stalk is, too... that would be amazing hmm
Can't find a straightforward diagram anywhere, detailing the colours.

Thanks
