So using black wire in any lighting circuit is definitely not the way to
go Mr. Burke??

Saw some helpful info on wiring but I have a funny (ha
ha) problem;
One side (either high beam or low beam if I switch
wires) on the passenger side headlight shines
yellowish instead of bright white. Drivers side works
fine, high or low. What I've done:
1. bought new headlamp
2. changed headlamp socket
3. rewired from terminal to headlamp socket
4. run new jumper wire from drivers side to passenger
side terminals
5. checked voltage at passengers side
Always get the same result. If wired one way, high
beam works great low beam goes yellowish, switch wires
and reverse, low works great, high goes yellowish. No
matter what, drivers side works fine. Did notice pn
low beam a faint 'high beam' dash light (feed through
somewhere?)
HELP !
