Headlight Wires?

I got everything fixed. I was my own worst enemy by getting the white wire involved. I wired it up exactly as I had originally drawn out and everything works perfectly with the 12v/5-pin relay. I'll still keep the incoming 6v relay as backup. Huge thanks to JTB for talking me through all the crazy intricacies of LEDs. The white/yellow trigger was key to the whole thing. I'll have pics on the other thread ( https://hondatrail125.com/index.php...h-rigid-radiance-lights-and-piaa-mounts.1131/ ) when the sun goes down.

Like my Marine Corps father-in-law used to say: "If you can't be an example, serve as a warning."

So I got this all sorted out. It was indeed the yellow/white wire that needed to be tapped to trigger my fog light relay when high beam is engaged. I can't explain it, but measuring with a multimeter gives incorrect results. Eventually I had an epiphany and tested things out and it works great.

So to summarize, I now have a set of fog lights installed that turn on with the high beam. Nice and simple.
Do you have a photo, on how you tap your fog lights? It's a grief finding the signal for high beam. Thanks.
