One of my headlights has recently decided to not raise. I've been going through the Pelican fault diagnosis. I am pretty convinced now the motor and relay are good, but the problem is in the wiring.

With the relay removed I want to run alternative power to the relay socket to determine if the wiring fault us upstream or downstream from the relay.

Can anyone please advise which of pins 30, 85, 86, 87 or 87A I either bridge or apply 12v to to do this test?

Thanks

Dave

Don't know which pin but i do know you need to watch your fingers!

The motors are surprisingly strong and it'll take out your fingers if they get caught behind the lever ...
