On this 87 the PO had issues with the headlights, and instead of replacing the Dimmer switch, he wired up a toggle switch on the dash for the low beams. I got the new dimmer switch in, but the F'ing moron separated the wires from the stock vehicle plugs that plug into the headlight's terminals, so I'm not sure what goes where. I have the ground in the middle, and the red wire on the right (Passenger's) side terminal, and the green one on the left (Driver's) side terminal. Everything seems to work as it should, but the Hi beam indicator lights up faintly with the low beams on. Also, he included another headlight switch, but as I mentioned, that wasn't the problem.
I found this: http://www.therangerstation.com/tech_library/EDiagrams/files/Diagram_Headlights_1983to1989.JPG but I can't really tell if I hooked it up correctly.
