Guys,
Strange thing I have come across with my Driving lights...
Lightforce XGT's
Dual Batteries - SBI212
Mk3 Diode booster
Toyota wiring harness for driving lights.
If the car has been left overnight, or is cold (not driven for a couple of hours) when I flick to highbeam the driving lights wont come on... After a minute or so (time varies) BOOM on they come.
There must be a relay behind the glove box somewhere, because when they are working normally if I flick the dash switch on and off I can hear one clicking. During the time when they are not on, the dash switch can be flicked on/off and no relay sound.
Toyota Coffs - Had no idea.
The sparkie that originally did the install has gone back to the mines, and I cant get hold of him any more, but his work was always A1 and I could never fault it.
I need to dig up where its drawing power from, the only thing I can think of is its pulling power from the battery isolator and once the batteries are linked we get power to the driving light relay. Problem with this theory is that when I manually link the batteries with the switch in the car, no driving lights.
Open to crazy theories as Im stumped.
