| Briskodian | Re: Ground side switched headlights Ground side switched headlights are generally found on Japanese vehicles. Fused B+ is connected to the filament common of an H4 lamp (usually earthed in Europe) and dip/full is selected by grounding the appropriate lamp terminal via the dipswitch. It's done to allow 1 fuse to serve both fullbeam and dip. rotodiesel. |
