Headlight help
So, A while back I had some halo headlights and all that other mess installed, and long story short from day one it was always a wiring nightmare and never worked like it was supposed to, so I went back to the OEM headlights but theres the wires that come from this blue and white clip that I dont know where the loose end is supposed to connect to. My low beam works, but when I switch to high beams it doesnt come on, and I know its not the bulbs because I can take the clips from the other side and plug them into either bulb whichever bulb is plugged in works fine, so it's something to do with the bright lights. Any help?

my dumbass forgot to even mention what bike it was lol. 2001 honda cbr 600 f4i. And @74demon so those are the turn signal wires(yes there is orange on the other side)? damnit, I have no clue why the bright light wont work. Ill have to go out there tomorrow and see if I overlooked something or if I can find anything else that may be the issue.

Yes. The blue connector is the connection for the factory marker/turn light. The green wire is the ground.
You do know that on that bike, the left side is low beam only with the right being high beam only, don't you? Well, stock anyway... The wiring may have been modified so they both come on low beam, resulting in loss of high beam function. It was a common modification because one headlight out all the time looks stupid and everyone gets tired of being told they have a light out constantly.

Yeah, I knew that. And you are right, it does look stupid and I do get tired of hearing that I have a light out. But anyway, the wiring from the aftermarket headlights did include the function to have both lights on at once, but all that wiring has been removed and it is back to nothing but the original wiring now. I can take the side that works and hook it to either bulb and which ever one it is hooked to comes on, but when I flip the switch for high beams the high beam doesnt come on, but like I said I guess I will have to go back outside when I have some daylight and see if I see any other wires or anything that could be causing it and upload anything I find into this post to try and get a solution. Thanks for the help so far.
