<p>But then you'll no longer have the dim yellow headlights
characteristic of the Lucas system! I'd note that when my Dad
drove up in his TR-6 at nigh. I'm sure it will be a fantastic
upgrade once you get it sorted.</p>

high-beam and the right one lights up and the left one goes

blue/white and blue/red wires and I have them connected to
the bulb wires correctly too. </span> </div>

<p>Not having seen your circuit. There should be a blue/white wire
coming from your dimmer switch to the coil of one relay, and a
blue red wire coming from your dimmer switch to the coil of the
other relay. Both relays should have one relay contact to
Battery, via a fuse. The other relay contact of the relay with
the blue/white coil wire gets a blue/white wire from each
headlamp socket. The other relay with the blue/red coil wire
gets the blue/red wire from each of the two light sockets. Light
socket black wire to chassis ground.<br>
<br>
Sounds like you wired one headlamp to one relay and the other
headlamp to the other relay. The Lucas wire colour code is your
friend. One coil gets blue/white (high beam) from both
headlights and the other relay gets Blue/red (low beam) wire
from each of the headlamps.</p>
<p>And if your wiring kit doesn't come with the correct colour
code yell at Moss for sourcing generic junk.<br>
