Yellow/black L/H. Yellow R/H = 12 volt supply

Red/blue = variable supply from levelling switch

sorry i am trying to test the adjuster  motor with a 12 volt bat charger and i have made toast again my unit has three wires brown blue and black and i have pos/neg from the charger so the black is the live feed to the pos do i bridge the other two to the neg or touch one at a time am trying to see if the motor spins at a breakers before buying thanks

Seems the colours change from the ten pin connector to the internal wiring of the headlamp unit which converts to;

Brown = Ground

Blue =12 volt supply

Black = Variable supply

You sure its a 12v supply Chris?

Dunno why but 9v sticks in my mind for some reason...

The supply is from the dipped beam fuse, the supply from the leveller could well be around nine volts depending on the position of the switch
