I got a weird electrical problem. I put a light bar on my car but in installing it has a universal h4 tap so the light bar only works when high beams are on. It’s the super cheap wiring loom. The light worked all good, then I tried to change the switch. Since then the side it’s wired into the bulb is dull. Even when I disconnect wire tap and just run it like it was factory. No fuses have blown. Bulb is still good. I don’t think it is a ground as the switch uses the same ground and the switch is getting power. So I tried changing it back to looms switch and still only a dull globe.

What did I break? Like I said it was working then I changed the switch now just a dull globe.

I didnt know that each headlight has a fuse. It was just a blown fuse.
