Wiring Help: Hella 4000's to Baja Design Bar

I need some help figuring out how to wire the bar to my existing wires from the 4000's. I have three wires for the 4000's (Blue: high, Yellow: low, Brown: ground). I have power with the lights on with the yellow grounded to brown, but no power with the switch on to the blue and brown. I know that I am missing something. I am also going from two 4000's to one bar. I should also mention the light on the switch is not coming on. Any suggestions?

I would probably lose the two way switch. You don't need it for an LED bar.. But somewhere in there is a relay. You'll have one wire from relay to light (power). One wire from relay to battery, one to switch. Then likely, the other wire to switch is 'switched power' so the ignition has to be on.

Like this:


I'm camping this weekend so cell service will be spotty, but this should get you started on troubleshooting.

That was it. Got it all installed and will test tonight. Looks good.

The light was amazing. Brennan at Baja Design nailed it with what I was wanting. He also followed up on a promise to send black screws because I did not like the silver ones on my black light. Could not be happier with the product and service.
