hey guys im very clos to having my yellow datto1000 ute on the road. i have an anoying electrical problem which has me stumped a little. my headlights turn on and the passanger one goes dim and eventually blows up. ive replaced it just to have the same problem. now ive got my multimeter and checked the voltage on the good side so i could compare with the other. the good side has 3 pins, when the lights are on 2 have 12V and 1 is 0v which i gather is the earth. on the bad side when the lights are on all 3 have 12V
any ideas?

Hi Matto1kUte

How come all 3 have 12V, check whether the earth wire is contacting with 12v wire somewhere, you light will not come up until you stop 12V at Earth,

Thanks
