Default Headlight Wiring help!

Bought a new headlight and it has many more wires then my original. I need help. Stock has a White Yellow and a black.

New headlight has two yellow, one with a connector on the end. One white and two black. Now one black inside goes from the connector to the bucket. the other goes from the bucket out.

I hooked up color to color and connected yellow connect to the frame.
No light.

I have tried about 4 other options. no light.

Anybody you has had this issue please help. Its basic wiring I am lost as to why its not working.

Does your new headlight use an h4 bulb? When I got my headlight I just used the old wiring harness on the new one. The wiring harness should connect to any h4 bulb.
