[Aey]

I have a RHD early 944 n/a and just replaced the whole wiring harness.

My original wiring harness was a mess (many cuts, spice, melt wires) and beyond repair, so I bought a very good used condition wiring harness from eBay. The problem is it’s LHD and my mechanic spent almost 3 months extending the wiring one by one to make it fit my RHD 944. Now everything look a lot better, very neat, and everything works :-) but I still have a problem with the high beam.

Long story short. When headlight is off and in down position, if the high beam stalk is pulled, high beam flash but headlight does not pop up.

Here is the scenario;
1.) Headlight Switch: OFF, Fog Light Switch: OFF —— When pulling high beam stalk: Fog Light flash. Headlight high beam also flash, but headlight does not pop up.
2.) City Light Switch: ON, Fog Light Switch: OFF —— When pulling high beam stalk: Fog Light flash. Headlight high beam also flash, but headlight does not pop up.
3.) Headlight Switch: ON, Fog Light Switch: OFF —— When pulling high beam stalk: Headlight high beam turn ON and stay on until pulling high beam stalk again. Nothing happen to fog light (fog light stay off).

4.) Headlight Switch: OFF, Fog Light Switch: ON => Result: All Light Off —— When pulling high beam stalk: Fog light did not flash. Headlight high beam flash, but headlight does not pop up. I basically have no flash light here.
5.) City Light Switch: ON, Fog Light Switch: ON => Result: City Light On and Fog Light On —— When pulling high beam stalk: No change on fog light, because it’s already on. Headlight high beam flash, but headlight does not pop up. So again I have no flash light in this situation.
6.) Headlight Switch: ON, Fog Light Switch: ON => Result: Headlight pop up and on, and Fog Light on —— When pulling high beam stalk: Headlight high beam turn ON and stay on until pulling high beam stalk again. Nothing happen to fog light. Fog light is already on and it stays on when high beam stalk is pulled.

My mechanic said the wiring from eBay was originally set like this, and looking at how neat of his work, I don’t think he did anything wrong. But one thing to be noted is; there is unused wires at the bumper where the fog lights are. I believe those wires are for another lights, like in the euro bumper?

I want to know how it suppose to be, if I pull the high beam stalk when the headlight is off and in down position. Should the headlight immediately pop up and flash? If so, I think my problem is the headlight does not pop up when high beam stalk is pulled. I don’t think there is a problem with pop up mechanism, because headlight pop up and down normally, when turning headlight on and off.

So what to check? High beam stalk? Wiring? Relay? Thanks for your help.
