put the harness in a few months ago, worked great, huge improvement

but now, only my low beams work, when i turn my high beams on, i have no lights at all (parking lights work of course)

i checked all connections (battery, ground at both lights, and plug going into the light)

everything was good

Now the weird part is the brights do work once in a while?

I was told it could be those relays? is this true? where can i find some new relays that will last more than a few months?

thanks in advance

 

Does it have relays like the putco harness?

 

If Putco, BW4136 relays.

 

yes its the putco, has some chinese marking on the relays now, napa or carquest couldnt cross reference b/c of the chinese

does napa carry what i need, if i take those numbers to them?

 

Yep.

 

thanks guys, I appreciate it...hopefully those last longer than the chinese ones that came with it

 

I've found them available at Advance Auto. AA lists two.

Part # r4136 as "BWD Relay"
Part # r4136p as "BWD Headlight Relay"

I went w/#r4136p. These relays won't mount to the PUTCO bracket. My one original PUTCO relay is still doing fine.

 

napa dont carry putco anymore

will the r4136 fit my harness?

 

So, did you replace any of the relays? do you have factory fogs?

 

im trying to find a replacement relay, but nobody sells just the relays, i have to buy the whole harness again

the numbers i was given dont match up according to napa or carquest

customer service says to contact the place where i bought them and it will be under warranty. Well thats great but i forgot where i ordered them from

and no on the factory fog lights...jeep never had them...

 

black2000xj,
Yea,it'll fit. My harness is a PUTCO also. I went with r4136p because the housing was of heavier material. Just type in r4136 and/or r4136p. Both will come up.

I got the link, i see what i need, its just the one guy said they wont fit the harness...i just want to remove the old, plug in the new and be done

Does this issue sound like a relay, with the high beams only not working


*thanks for the link...i will get some tonight

 

I changed out my relays on the AA parking lot. It fits.

My problem started with my high beams not working all the time. Then one night nothing. Next day I switched the two PUTCO relays and hi's worked. I could get the bad relay to work by pinching the housing but of course that would never do. Relay was sticking open.

If you look at the pics at AA's site you'll see that the housing is diff from the PUTCO so you can't mount them on the PUTCO bracket. I made one to work but you could just zip tie it somewhere.

 

oh i just zipped tied them together and tucked them in the wheel well

great i will get some tonight...hopefully this will fix it

 

Put your lo beam relay on the hi beam harness to check. Both relays are the same.

Wonder if anyone else besides us has had a problem with the hi beam relay? My lo beam one is fine. HOPE I didn't just jinx myself!
