I’m reposting this into a different category,

I’m rewriting my M1008 with 3 ,2 pos toggles and a 3 pos toggle i have a separate block from painless for the brake and signals but I still need to wire my head lights. I’d be wiring them with a on/off low beam and an on/off high beam. Does anyone know which wire is low and which wire is the high beam? Also if anyone can help me figure out which wires to splice into that’d be really appreciated. I’ll try to figure out how to throw up some pictures of my wiring diagram and put em below.

Strictly in curiosity...why reinvent the wheel? If you have wiring problems, why not just replace the harness with an OE harness?

I’d like to start and get rid of the military stuff and still have its utility. I’d like to bypass the lights with the service light switches and the black out switches while still keeping the functionality of the added military systems

I did a proof of concept on my harness. The front blinkers work, and the hazard toggle works( all blinkers flash) but when I use my turn signals both tail light blinkers and back up lights flash. I’m not positive if it’s a ground issue or if there is something a wicked up in the rear. I matched the colors that corespondent to the light. Green right rear to a green wire yellow left rear to the yellow wire. I did the same color match with the front with success but the rear is giving me issues. I’ve read that there is a light and dark green wire heading towards the rear. I believe I got it spliced into the light green. Any help is appreciated thank you I’ll post pics after work
