Default Default behaviour of 87 K5 headlights...

Hi,

1987 k5 as seen on the image to the left attached.



Now my problem is as for all these trucks.. bad light from the headlights and a lot of cables and relays in between... Im trying to sort the mess out...

My current behaviour is that the 2 headlights on top only have the "position" light on when i have the driving lights on.

I want to know if anyone knows how its supposed to be...


Driving light on: X= low beam 0=position light only

im kinda confused by the question but the top lights are you normal driving lights and the bottom lights are your brights, all 4 should light up when brights are applied

I understand that the question was verry hard to understand

So.. right now i have the opposite effect..

my botton lights are my driving lights and the top ones only has a vague light.. in sweden we call it position lights, so if your normal lights are out atleast they can see you with those...
