High Beam/low Beam

[Aazzy]

Have got a series 1 r33 and have always wondered if the low beams are supposed to stay on when high beam is on. Mine switches off so that only 2 lights are on at a time instead of all 4. Is this the case with all 33's or is there a wiring issue or possibly wrong globes in mine.

There was Thread about this just the other day + many in the past.

It seems to be the design from factory and someone was getting defected for it recently.

There is a DIY thread on how to get both High & low beam to work at the same time.

I have the same mate. When you go from low beam to high beam it seems to switch off the lens on the outer side and turn the ones on the inside on. I assumed it would be down to the position of the 2 lens.

Seems to be regency approved, considering the amount of times my car has been there

old series 2 R31's were similar - outside lamps were low beam, and the two (each side) inner lamps were high beam. Which was funny seeing as the outer lights were H4's (high and low elements).

I had a auto sparky mate change the plug and wire in so when you hit high beam its 6 lamps of fury

It never really bothered me, almost forgot it even did it, but since i got it resprayed and a new set of rims etc... All the little things are really starting to annoy me. Also noticed the interior light will not come on when the doors open. Only manually with the roof switch. Yet the door switches have power and are grounded. It's almost as if it was never set up for it. And the door switches were for the alarm only.
