914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Adding head light relay

Posted by: BK911 Jul 10 2010, 03:40 PM

I found some generic schematics, but nothing specific. I am a little confused on how to wire these things up.

Here is what I am thinking. Please let me know if there is a better way.

Connect existing headlight relay terminal 56a to new low beam headlight relay terminal 86.
Connect new LBHR terminal 85 to grnd.
Run 12g wire from battery to fuse 4.
Install 20a fuse in terminal 4.
Run 12g wire from fuse 4 to new LBHR terminal 30.
Run (2) 12g wire from LBHR terminal 87 to L and R headlights.

Pretty much the same for high beam.

Will this work? Or should I connect the new relay after the existing fuse?
Can I run the power directly to the new relay first, then to the existing fuse so I can split the wire there?

Any pictures of how / where the new relays are mounted?
Where is the existing headlight relay?

Thanks!
BK

Read this thread through. Page 2 probably has your answers.
