What wattage are your tripods?  As soon as I went with lights bigger =
than stock I added relays.

I have tripod headlamps on my TR3.

=20

For some time, only the driver side would work on low beam, and the =
passenger side only on high beam.

=20

I have taken everything apart, and there is no problem with either the =
wiring or the bulbs.

=20

When I plug in sealed beam units, both sides work on high and low beams.

=20

Could it be that the draw from the higher performance lamps is causing =
the problem?
