Front Headlight Wiring

[tojeiro]

For front lights I tagged the relevant plugs during loom removal but did not get original headlights with my donor so trying to figure out wiring from mellens diagram and my multimeter.

Electrics is not a strength, MX5 headlight loom plug has 5 wires and new Quadotic light has 4 wires (with link wire between main and sidelight)

I drew up what I think is right, can anyone confirm before I start blowing fuses.

Should not blow any fuses but the side light will only come on with the headlights, I think you will need to cut the link between the headlight and side light ground (as the headlight 'ground' is power in the Mazda wiring) and connect it to the sidelight plug.

Cheers, good news is I got all working properly. Had some of my sidelight wire colours mixed up but I fixed the above picture in case it helps anyone in the future.

It works perfect as shown and got lights and full beam indicator on dash and dimmer is working also.
