Thought i would stick this up as I know one is hard to find and its nice to be nice all the information is thanks to Bugeyejohn

On the morette plug as you look at it...
Connect two wires to the left terminal(+) send 1 to the high beam live and 1 to the dipped beam live, then on the right terminal (this is a switched earth) send to the high beam earth, thats the high beam working, then send a wire from the dipped beam earth to the earth on the inner wing(constant earth) thats the dipped beam working then connect the other plugs for side lights/ indicators and thats it, simples





Sidelights

Dipped lights and sidelights

Highbeam and dipped beam


Once again cheers to bugeyejohn for the guide to start with

 

Glad they turned up alright, and got them working ok. Managed to get them sprayed? can't tell in the pics.

 

hia mate yeah did you catch my other thread "big thanks" https://www.scoobynet.com/scoobynet-...ig-thanks.html

no not got them sprayed yet wanted to make sure i could get them going properly 1st! lol just took them back off tonight and soldererd the wires and heat shrank them etc, so the ugly ones are back on till i get them done lol
now they are just plug and play as soon as they are paited woop

 

I hadn't seen that one, glad they were an easy fix for ya and save you paying out on an auto electrician.

 

I know i nearly did I took me a while to get bugeyejohns guide to sink in and i nearly gave up and phoned him, the only reason i didnt was cos it was 10pm lol so i thort id stick at it for a bit then they came to life......after a couple of 15amp fuses !

 

Well done Lee glad you got them working could this be the end of the dreaded morette thread

 

yeah hopefully if any1 uses the search function they may find this and find it useful ha

 

That's brilliant and just what I needed!! My wagon has morettes and whoever wired them in ****ed it right up!! One of the side lights dont work but comes on when dipped beam is put on and one side of the headlamp adjusters dont work either so m going to take them out and start again,this diagram is spot on!!!

 

If you want you can also fit a 4 pin relay between the oe socket and the bulbs for power feed on each side if you prefer.I didnt on mine and havent read of it been done by other people wiring this way,but if you prefer to use a extra relay thats where you can fit it

 

no probs mate I think 95turbowagon was having a similar problem with these, bugeyejohn offered to help him but i think he was fed up with them and put the oe ones back on, but glad this will help you mate

 

Im gonna bump this some1 may need it and its not in the search function???

 

Another bump. Very useful info.

Had Morette's on mine since I bought it. 5 Pin Relays have been fitted on both sides? Generally they work OK but in the past have acted really weird. One HB and then one LB?. Had a lot of corroded spade connectors. Now replaced and working OK or they were. Last night lost High Beam. Dodgy relay or earth I think..

 

A tip about relays:

If you can, fit a PROPER relay box with the female connectors captive in it so that the relays sit vertical and can be plugged in and uplugged like the ones on your car.

If you CAN'T do this, then seal the bases of relays to their lids with something like Araldite to stop water ingress, then solder ALL female spade connectors to their wires, and ALWAYS use a soft plastic cover over the spade.
Finally, if the relay and it's connectors are in a particularly wet situation, smear grease over the connectors once connection has been made.

All this learned from rallying years ago.

 

Great advice.

 

Anybody have a diagram of this so i can put on phone

 

think this is what u are looking for ( I have tried to 'GRAB' it, but dont know how........)

Back to life

 

Hi all been looking at leeturbos guide could someone just clarify that I won't need to use the relays and won't need the wire that runs from one headlight to the other headlight or I won't need the power supply from the battery? I did put a post up last night on how to wire these up and some gave me your guide I do have some pics on my post Thanks

 

Hia mate, no you dont need relays or that wire just cut it all off and throw it away, just them wires iv took pics of is all you need buddy

 

Ah that's awesome how easy is that cheers for the help just got to get them sprayed the correct colour now

 

Sorry to revive guys but just a point of interest? I have bug morettes which worked fine until I installed hid's now one dipped will only come on in high beam position any ideas?

 

free bump 'cos I have issues with mine

 

just this min wired mine up using this thread. spot on chap. thanks a million

 

You're welcome mate, glad it helped you

 

have u by passed relays as ive got 3 and still no proper lights thanks

 

Mine are wired so main lights are on outside and little poxy bulb on inners for main lights ! And inners are high beam!!! Might be why I can't see at night then!!

Going to go have a looky now!!

 

its like my high beam is stuck on and wrong lights working any ideas?

 

Just picked up a bugeye with these lights and the high beam doesn't work. Having a quick skim nothing makes sense to me yet but I'm sure the answer is between here and having a good look in the daylight. New to DIY car electrics so gonna have to learn as I go.

 

Yes all the relays are removed.

 

Hi, Anyone got the pics for the Bugeye Morette Wiring Diagram? I just see the 3rd party error.

Just got mine and want to install them without the relays. many thanks
