euro light problems(electrical)

[ranahan@charter.net (John Erickson)]

1 & 2:  From the tech procedure on the Scirocco.org site:

Wiring the H4. Don't be fooled! Just because the H4 bulb uses the same 
connector as the US bulb, doesn't mean the wires hook up to the same place. 
Holding the connector facing you, so that the wires are leading away from 
you, the wires should be hooked up as follows:

The TOP wire is for the LOW BEAM. The LEFT wire is for the HIGH BEAM. The 
right wire is for the GROUND. If you have the left and right wires 
reversed, it's not a big deal; you'll know because when you turn on the low 
beams, the high beams will glow dimly.

3 - NO.

4.  The inner lights are driving lamps with either H1s or H3s.  They should 
come on when you hit the brights on the H4s.
