I just got some headlights in. Black housing with frosted eyebrow and half moon. Looks good so far but I've stumbled across a potential issue.
I don't know if the beam pattern is DOT or ECE.
I want to bench test one of the lights to see the low beam pattern, but I don't know what wires to power. I've seen the wiring diagrams but they do not list what pin does what.

Has anyone ever done this before?
Attached are the images of the connectors.

I haven't done this before, but here is a diagram of the connector to the headlamp from the FSM, both sides have the same pinout connections.

Diagram shows pins facing you.

Pin 5 is +12V at 15 Amps (low beam)
Pin 7 is +12V at 10 Amps (high beam)
Pin 3 is GND
