Thanks, I didn't mean the relay didn't have power, it was an old Relay came from New England with me and it was old then. and was just worn out... a corroded broken wire inside the relay on post 85 stopped the relay from actuating. I need to stop keeping broken things.
The relay was in my box of leftovers and was probably a bad relay when it went in the box; sometimes I save things... just in case.
I have no doubt that the wire I now have from F1.41 will work the relay when the key is in Run position and the wiring to the Grille lights has already been checked and works.
Thanks a lot for your help, I will be using the F1.31 for a back up circuit for who knows what I think of for my next electrical project.
I have a lot of clean up to do and I promised the wife to get one item off the Honey-Do List after the headlight were done... Headlights, Parking Lights, new Hella Horns, Grille Lights, DRL Circuit... all the same thing... right !
The low beam wire for the Halos... interesting; I will need to look at that before putting everything back together.
Right now my Grille Lights and my High Light Halos will come on with the ignition and stay on as long as the truck is running. The Driver's Headlight Socket is supplying the power and High/Low actuation to the Projectors.
I would need to review the Projector Circuit to verify what goes where, but if I remember correctly the high beam power is used to actuate the Shutter that lifts to allow full use of the projector beam and the low beam power is the power to the lights or vise-versa.
Again not sure off the top of this old head but I thinking on the Halos and DRL right now so one thing at a time.
Thanks to all for suggestions and use of your knowledge base to get this project ALMOST done.
