so here is my problem. i have a pair 6 inch pro comp stainless 130 watt llights. i tried replacing the switch because i was going to mount it in a different location on the dash. when i swapped out the switch literally unplug and plug in the new, only one of the lights turns on. i put the old switch back and same thing only one light comes on. Anybody have any thoughts? I'm thinking that if i rewire everything that might fix it but i don't know. I did check the bulb on the lamp that does not turn on and the filament is not broken.

Do the lights have separate fuses? When I was mounting my Hellas, I was putting the switch in the cab after making sure they worked, and somewhere along the way, after i got the switch inside the cab, but before it was mounted in the dash, the lights wouldn't work. I checked the fuses, and one of the power fuses went out. Don't know how it happened, but it did, so just make sure you check those first.

sorry for taking so long to reply, but i have checked all of the fuses and all are good. i'm planning on getting to it this weekend and double checking that all of the connections are still tight and secure. most likely i think that i got a wire loose
