Yes that is exactly what happened.  My connection was originally between the
fuse and the headlight, and therefore only energising one light.  I put the
relays between the dimmer switch and the fuses and therefore putting the
power through the fuses and energising both lights.

    Not true.  Please read my wiring directions carefully at > Vanagon
Headlamp Relay  <http://members.aol.com/Fkc43/hdltrela.htm> Upgrade.  The
fuses are still fusing the headlamps.  The problem you may be having is your
making the connection at the wrong side of the fuse, read and follow the
directions carefully.  I install these relay in my customers vans frequently
and encounter no problems.
