1988 90 - 19J Lighting Issue

Hi
I've had a drain on the battery and traced it back to the lighting circuit - Theres 2 relays, the first one (non yellow) seems to be the source of the issue - is this a dim dip relay? I cant seem to get the wiring sequence right to allow the side light and headlights to work correctly - can anyone offer any advice?

OK - so i've replaced the lighting switches and that appears to have sovlved the drain - it starts after having the battery connected for 2 days Thanks!

However, now im finding that if i put on the main beam one light is dimmer than the other - same applies to the high beam - also should he relays be heating up after being on for half an hour?

It’s probally a bad earth for the lights. Remove plastic spats & clean up the earths on the inner wing

I was wrong - on a high beam, the left hand light goes to high but the right hand side turns off.... Still an earth issue?
