Just installed a pair of LED Truck-lite headlights. I turn on the lights and only the low beams works. If I remove the left LED headlight and plug in the old H4 headlight with a tungsten bulb, and leave the LED headlight on the right side, then the high beams and low beams work on the H4 and the LED bulb??? On a side note, I installed LED turn signal and tail light bulbs and modified the flasher with a jumper wire. Turn signals and running lights work fine. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
