I've fallen on the strangest headlamp query... Up until the other day my headlamps (defender 200) have always worked fine. I've changed the stewing column for a 48 spline, plugged all the dash harness back in as per, and the headlamps will only work in dim dip. Having searched and searched I've found out that there is a slot next to the starter relay for headlights. Swapped the starter relay into the light slot and all works fine??? There's never been a relay in the before so why all of a sudden does it now need one I ask? The only thing I've done is removed aux wiring the previous owner has left because I hate scotch locks so I would have said the wiring is "clean" now compared to before. Real head scratcher for me. Has anyone come across phantom light operation like this before?
