Default Headlight wires..........
I need to know what each wire is for on the headlights. I have a problem and I'm trying to trace it down. Does anyone have a diagram or color codes, so I can identify which is which. Or does anyone know for sure which wire is the ground wire and which is the positive wire.

Help appreciated..
