      Well, today I took the time to have a closer look at the connector and it's wires on the lightstalk. It turns out it looks a lot like the one Martin showed (see below) but: Green/red & green/black are inverted and the brown/yellow wire is on pin 8 instead of pin 1.

      I now put in a bridge between pin 8 and pin 7 (as pin 8 was already used) and the dipped beam stays on, all looks OK.

      However I would now like to know what is the brown/yellow wire for and does it belong on pin 8. If I know what it's for I can try it on pin 1 and if all stays working I can loose the bridge and put the yellow wire in pin 8.
      I can not find the brown/yellow wire in my schematics, anybody any idear??

      Thanks in advance

        if u have voltage tester.. then try to check which free source can give electric while the high beam is on and then stick ur yellow thick into it.. i have this brown yellow in this plug which i show in the pic also in the pin 8 i taught its like that because it wasnt for s2 or v6 car but now i am confused.
