Well put this in my really bad week file too. I've got the Hella driving lights all mounted and wired up. I wanted to do a slick install and use the on with high beams feature as diagramed in the lights instruction sheet. Well I wired the on feed to the lights relay by tapping into the high beam power feed on the passenger side head lamp. Now I'm not taking power there, just getting an 'on' signal.
So I tried them out after completing the wiring etc. Turned on the headlights and things were fine (Hellas off). Then clicked the high beams on, still good (Hellas came on). Then turned the high beams off and oh no, the Hellas stayed on. Then turned the headlights off and the Hellas were still on! Now either I have chose a bad feed to turn these on (the center wire on the headlight plug) or the Hella relay is bad...
So Midlife?
