My Hi-Beam/Low-Beam floor switch doesn't switch to high beam. I took the thing out, cleaned everything, and actually thinking about moving the switch in form of a flicker switch to the dash, as it's in the way of my left foot anyway.

The switch has 3 terminals, marked as follows from left to right: 56b, 56, 56a.

There are 4 wires going to the switch:

left: yellow
middle: gray
right: 2 x red

Theoretically, yellow and gray are low beam and high beam (or vise versa) and red is power, which would be coming from the light switch. But why are there 2 red wires?

Can somebody bring "light" into this?

Thanks,

Bernard
