3 wires

Black w/green & white stripe (common)
Black w/ green stripe
Black w/ white stripe

Test continuity between the common to one of the other two while the switch is turned.

EDIT: you may have to disconnect all three from the circuit to get an accurate reading.

Great stuff! I have continuity on those pins (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)
Do you happen to know whitch pin should have continuity when tested against common for the high beam?
