I have a black, brown and green wire from the headlight does anyone know what wires belong where? This is a 1953 GMC with a new Chevy Duty wiring harness. I'm sure one is high beam, one for low beam, and a ground maybe?

Hi, low and ground. I believe the black is ground.


1955 1st GMC Suburban | 1954 GMC 250 trailer puller project | 1954 GMC 250 Hydra-Matic | 1954 Chevy 3100 . 1947 Chevy COE | and more...
It's true. I really don't do anything but browse the Internet looking for trouble...

Did you get the numbered list from CD that told what each wire was, I didn't when I got my harness so they faxed it to me. If not I can look it up for you when I get home tonite as I still have all that stuff.
Also you might find this helpful. it's the wireing diagram that I used when installing my harness.
On my diagram black is ground, Green hooks to Black #16 at the terminal block and Brown hooks to Green #15 at the terminal block.

I'm a visual person so I always have to have a current wiring diagram in my truck in case I have trouble.
