Default Autopal Headlight question!

Hello everyone, I bought my XJ and the previous owner had it with Autopal Ecodes (i believe they are ecodes) don't know much about this headlight harness I have but it seems to be an upgrade. Looks like its the stock bulb because brightness is the same as my moms ZJ. Not sure if you can tell whats the highest wattage I can use by just looking at the pic of the harness I have. Help is greatly appreciated! oh and I have no high beams at the moment, Thanks!

Yeah, that's the Putco harness, it is an upgrade for sure compared to the stock harness. The lack of high beams is most likely due to a faulty relay, as long as all of the wiring is proper. Also, I believe that the harness is rated for 100w.

I am not aware off-hand of a place to get a replacement relay, however.

Here is a link to the harness, just for your reading information.

100 watts is the rating. The relay is a BW-4136.

The wattage of the existing bulbs is right on the bulb. Do not touch the glass with your fingers!!!! Use a tissue.
