Hello Paul,

i think we need a test scenario.

You've said you have a Multimeter, so you can test different things.

1.)
Remove both fuses for high beam lamps.
Turn headlamps and highbeam on (with installed headlamps)
Check if you have electrical voltage against ground in the fuse sockets.

If yes, the problem lies between fuse socket and headlamp.

But i would say you will have electrical voltage there.

Turn everything off.

2.)
Put in the fuses.
Check if you electrical voltage against ground before and after the high beam lever. To do that you have to remove some parts to get to the connector of the high beam lever / turn signal switch.

If there is no electrical voltage behind the lever but before, than there is a problem with the lever / turn signal switch.

If there is no electrical voltage before the lever we have to check the normal light switch.

The turn signal / high beam switch and normal light switch are connected via point 22. But that would mean, low beams also shouldn't work if there would be a problem with the normal light switch.

Turn everything off.

3.)
To test if you get output from the normal light switch you have to check if you get a signal from the KL56 / K30 2.5 WT/BK cable.

To do that you have to remove the light switch.

But i think the problem is the turn / high beam switch or a failed connection in the connector or something like that. Everything else wouldn't make sense.

If you like i can send you a wiring diagram via email. Just pn me you email-address.

Hope that helps.

Regards, Markus
