Folks
My right side 914-6 headlight high beam is not working (original 6 circuitry)
Low beam works on both sides
High bean only works on left side; right side is off
Fog lights work
(IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

I bought new lights (H4s) and replaced it thinking it was a bad high beam

New light did not work on high, only low beam
I replaced a third light to confirm and same-- (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif)

Fuse box under dash all my fuses are good--but is there one fuse that controls the right and left high beam separately? it would not make sense that there is a fuse only for one side of the light and only for high beam....

the rear engine relay, does it have anything to do with the lights?

I am trying to see where or what I need to check, specially if low bean works

there are three wires in the back of the light--how do I check voltage to see if the connector is bad?

Me not a good mechanic.... simple questions for many of you, but for yours truly.... not that simple...I am trying to be like all you cool katz that can do all of the fixes on your own!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

any help/suggestions are appreciated..

pictures of diagrams will help if you have any!

Gracias!
