Try cleaning the ground wire connections. And you may have some wires that have rubbed together and are arcing.
I know it sounds simple and silly but you never know.
Where are the ground wire connections? At the headlight itself? Grounded to the body? Are you sure you remember anything about having headlights on a 914, haha!?!?

Check the brown and yellow/red wire at the bottom of the sterring column these
go to the switch for the low/high beams lights. I assume you can the relay for the
low/high beam lights also and that it is wired correctly.
I suspect you and URY are onto something there...I just really hate the idea of tracking wiring stuff down..

The relay it's self is dirty
Pull the cover off the relay and spray it with electrical contact cleaner and blast some air through it.
Normally this happens to the high beam contacts
Tried that...relay is brand new and the fuse box is a brand new Engman unit.

when you say 'relay', you are refering to the the one on the top side of the fuse box mounted on the bottom of the dash, correct?

Yep that's the one.....
I have been trying to avoid tracing wires, but it looks like it's time to just dig into it...Or maybe I can just keep driving it only during daylight hours...
