Headlight help

I bought my FD about a month and a half ago and it had a lot of unnecessary stuff on it. It came with aftermarket headlights but the previous owner gave me the stock headlights as well. I installed the headlights today and the lights won't turn up. When I switch the lights on, I can hear a clicking noise from a relay under the hood. Is their only one wire to plug into the headlight?

How many connectors are their that lug into it? Is there a way to test the motors to see if they are both bad?

There is one connector for the motor and another one for the headlight itself which plugs into the stock bulbs.

One way to test them is to take off the rubber boot and manually move them halfway up and plug the motor connector. This should, depending on your setting, close the headlight down or open it up. Careful though, as soon as the connector makes contact the headlight closes/opens quickly.

Ok, I'll try it in the morning. Also, is there a way to check if the relay is working?
