Hi,

I'm finishing up a 944 restoration and sorting out all the electrical gremlins one at a time. I'm struggling with my low beams not coming on as they should. The buckets rotate up, but curiously the low beams only come on with the high beams.

Any help form someone that knows what could cause this strange behaviour would be great!

Can you unplug the H4 bulb/sealed beam & test the supply coming into the plug? Out of 3 wires, you should have one of the wires give a +ve when the headlight pops up & another when you switch to Hi Beam. Third wire is normally a -ve.

Assuming you have checked all fuses, start with the wires, & we can move on.
