ZA Ford Ranger (2019 XLS) - Headlight connector wiring diagram

[Gravedigger_ZA]

Good day friends.

I'm looking for a headlight connector wiring diagram, as I suspect the US and other versions is different at the connector?

I bought a pigtail connector for wiring up a relay on the high-beam, (explanation below) without splicing any wires.
Problem is, the pins on the pigtail connector vs the pinout on the connector is different. (for the high beam)
The high beam signal on the wiring diagram is on pin 3, but when I compared it to the pigtail, it seems to me it is on pin 4, which is a ground. (I will have to confirm again)

So, I'm not sure if it is a pigtail that has been pinned incorrectly, but I want to confirm that the connector pins is correct. - Anyone that can chime in for some advice?

Vehicle's VIN starts with AFA - South Africa.
I want to start diagnosing on why the left low beam bulb keeps on blowing after 2-3 days of replacement.
The bulbs are all halogen.
Will start measuring resistances at the connector (with the pigtail to give me more access), I suspect that the previous owner installed a load-ballast with LED's, and prior to selling, swapped over the LED's to halogen. I also saw that on the right-side harness connector, it was tapped for a high-beam signal, (presumably to install a relay for spot-lights)

Right-side (driver side) dipped beam works, only the left one that blows. Will have to check the BCM programming with Forscan.

I'm currently away for a days, I do not have access to my vehicle right now.
Ford's response? Replace the headlight assembly, which is expensive.

Not sure if your ROW Ranger has the same main connector or if different, if the same as the US Version - there is some valuable information on pinouts here.

Somewhere on this forum or Google Search - I have seen a ROW Ranger Plug that was pinned differently - most ROWs are for various connectors and it was posted on what wires they moved to match.
You can view the link below or use the table of pinouts for both US Version Assemblies as a guide

Note: US Version Rangers all have the same main harness connector (All pinned the same) but at the headlight assemblies the (Internal Pinouts - Change) between Halo & LED Assemblies

Thanks. I guess I'll have to figure out the pins myself with a multimeter.

I can confirm that the harness connector pigtail that I purchased, is pinned on pin 1 for GND and pin 4 for the high-beam, which is not matching with the wiring diagram. If I'm reading the pinout correctly, it is the female connector, the one that connects to the "headlight" connector that goes with a short run into the headlight itself?

I definitely think that there's a difference between the US and ROW when it comes to the headlight connector.

Will have to do resistance tests by removing/reinstalling the bulbs and figure which pin goes to which.

I partially depinned the pigtail, for some reference. One cannot blindly assume the pinout is the same.
Attached is two photos. The top black and red wire is pin 1 and 4, according to the wiring pinout.

I will post my findings on the pins, as soon as I have done the multimeter probing.
