I rewired my headlights from the dimmer switch to the headlamps a couple years ago. Prior owner had the three wires on the dimmer mixed up so lights only worked on hi beam.

What year and model are you working on?

If it is 6v, you must use 12ga wire as a minimum.

Do the headlights work at all on either hi or lo beam?
