Billy,
My Dietz were only three wire (red low beam, green high beam, black ground) so yours must have a marker lamp internal? My guess is that they will be red low, green high, blue ground and yellow marker. You likely know this, but you can check continuity/resistance to verify the colors - clamp one lead on your blue wire, and you should see continuity to the red with some resistance for the low beam filament, continuity to the green with a higher resistance for the high beam, and then continuity with a much lower resistance for the marker. If that checks than a quick check with a hot wire from your battery to the yellow, red and then green will verify the colors.Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

Grounded through the mount.a hot rod is whatever i decide it is.
I had to go to the doctor's this morning. He told me that my sugar was too high so I came home and put it on a lower shelf. I feel better already.
