So I finished up with the install of my halo headlights yesterday and I am stuck on how to make the switch work with the wiring harness that I have. I made an MS paint diagram of how I have it wired currently. Couple wires still floating and I don't know what to do with them. (No instructions come with the kit)




Any ideas?

are they bare wires? or is it a plug, like your awesome drawing would indicate...?

Don't have time to take pictures right now but the ones coming out of the headlight are like a micro putty knifes with a little dot in the center. Its like they are supposed to plug into a female connector but there is none.

have you tried to see if they work without those plugged in? It may be an unnecessary adapter or some universal plug for another make and model?

I believe those are called spade connectors...but shouldn't the switch be somehow interrupting the power source from the batter to the inverter...that would be my guess.

Well from the diagram it looks like the ground goes to the switch, so by turning off the switch, you cut the ground, which would be cutting power to the inverter, while the line between the inverter and battery stays hot.

Yeah, thats why I stay outa anything that requires electricity...

And actually, that's not the case if the ground really is between the switch and the inverter. If the switch is between the ground and the inverter, then it would work that way.

my point exactly... you have power and ground going to a switch...shit should work regardless of what the green wires are

yeah but the switch doesn't interrupt anything in the circuit for the halo's. If you take out his switch, the halo wiring still has a ground and power, so complete circuit.

the switch interrupts EVERYTHING when its switched.... thats why its a SWITCH,,, ****in amateurs.. lol


Eric, do the lights work as is??


EDIT::: hey thats kinda cool, when I type ****, it bleeps it out

Not in his diagram!!!

What he said! :P

uhh, ya... the ground is grounded when the switch is on, thus completing the circuit, the ground to the inverter is ungrounded when the switch is off

No...if you remove the switch and wiring out of his diagram all together...the wiring for the lights is still grounded! He points out that circle as being a ground, so therefore even w/o the switch there, there's still a ground.
