My right headlight burned out a couple of weeks ago. I got a couple of replacements from a buddy who upgraded to LEDs and had his old ones laying around (Thanks DU!). The new headlight looks good in low-beam mode, but in high beam mode it's very dim, and after replacing the bulb, my high beam indicator lamp on the dash is on all the time when the lights are on. It's dim in low-beam mode and normal in high beam mode, but on all the time nonetheless.
One thing I noticed is that the ground wire (wire 91) is in a different location in the right bucket than it is in the left, but I used a multimeter to figure out which connector is ground, and I'm pretty sure I have wires 17 and 18 hooked up correctly.
Anyone have any thoughts on why the right light is dim in high beam mode (I tried both two different lamps and both are the same), or why the dash indicator is glowing in low-beam mode? Does this look like a short? I hate electrical issues.
