Spotlight wiring woes...
narked:
They've already got new plugs/connectors, as I've had the melting problem before. Originally I used a set of pre-wired H4 plugs off eBay, but the wire used was stupidly thin and they lasted all of a week, so I replaced them with seperate plugs and spade connectors from Lucas, along with decent rated cable. Will have a play around with them this afternoon once I get out of work.
Cheers for the advice.

Just had a quick look during a lull in work, and it's definately an issue connected to the driver's side headlight. If I disconnect that headlight, all the problems disappear, the main beam indicator doesn't glow on dipped beam, and the spots turn on and off as they should. So if I get chance this afternoon I'll check over the wiring to that headlight.
Thanks again for the help.

Also check the condition of the earth wire to that headlight and the terminal where it's grounded then, if you've already had problems with it.

Its not a big job to provide seperate earths for each light unit, LR used one point for both on mine, now each side has its own. My plugs are also somewhat frazzled. Will order new ones some day.

The plugs are available form Vehicle Wiring Products but TBH the wire in them is a bit thinn for my liking :?
