Hi Jim, the headlight problem sounds like the typical issue when they swap the american sealed beams with the regular lights with replaceable bulbs. The pin configuartion is different, that's the reason why the voltage is divided - the other bulbs are connected in series. The pin configuration can be swapped at the connector. have fun with your new toy ;-) Elvis Hi al, the name is Jim and I live in South Africa I have just taken delivery of a DMC 12 with 600 miles clocked. As far as I know its the 2nd one in the country. Have some problems and rather than try to re invent the wheel thought I would ask. 1. Headlights...when i turn on low beam high beam also comes on but dim, the voltage on the high beam is 8v. I have check and added new earths...no luck. When switching to high beam the reverse happens.
