Datsun B110 headlights are fused through the fuse box. No relays are used. Original Specs for headlights are 50/40 watt (standard large round headlights). From the fuse box "Battery" side (always hot, not dependent on ignition key position), through a 15-amp fuse the circuit goes to the Light Switch. From the Light Switch it goes to the Dimmer switch on the column. From here -- depending on the position of the Dimmer lever position -- it goes to either the low (DIM) beam of the headlights or the high (MAIN) beam of the headlights.

Overview
The headlights are grounded via the main wiring harness.
Completing the headlight features is the "High Beam" light in the instrument panel. This is connected to the high-beam circuit to light up a visual indicator on the dash when the high beams are on.
So the headlight circuit has these components:
- Two identical headlights
- (Standard 12V "large round" type used by all makes of older vehicles)
- 15A Fuse in fuse box
- Light Switch
- Dimmer switch (T/S & Light Switch on steering column)
- High-beam indicator lamp in instrument panel
- Wiring and connectors
- Relays are NOT used
Earthing
The headlights are grounded via the main wiring harness.
