Ok, did a lot of googling today...not sure I'm smarter or not but read a bunch of stuff about headlights.
The car is a Monogram model...with BRZ headlights. The boomerang LED doesn't light up...that led me down a several hour rabbit hole of reading.
I have bookmarked a bunch of links and will try to figure out what the previous owner did while trying to sort out the intermittent headlight issue. I was concerned it was going to be some sort of cobbled-together mess with tape and wire nuts and taps. I was relieved to find it all looks like factory wiring for the most part. However, I noticed a yellow wire on the back of the LH harness (from the headlamp assembly) that was cut and not connected to anything. I suspect that runs the DRL or indicator but didn't see a yellow wire on any wiring diagrams.
I plan to do a full accounting of the wiring with pen and paper tomorrow and try to figure out what I have. From there, I hope to sort it all out. My son would really like to have the boomerang LED's work...seems like something I'd want too...just not sure if it is as easy as re-pinning things or if I need to introduce diodes or remove resistors (things I read about during my google searches today).
Once I have a better idea of what I'm dealing with I might have an intelligent question or two... :-)
