I just did this exact same install, same lights and harness. I'm having an issue though.If you are using the powered AUX cables, then you need to cut the relay and the switches away. You should have one set of White/Red/Black from each light.
Run them to the powered AUX cables behind the battery.
Pair the blacks up and ground them to a single ground somewhere near the battery. I used the ground toward the front of the truck by the battery.
Pair the two White cables with the powered violet/green (This is the amber and AUX1)
Pair the two Red cabled with the powered green/brown (this is the main light and AUX 2)
Then just enjoy the midnight sun!
I did everything you outlined, removing the relay, fuses, extra wiring and joined the like-colored wires together. I then set the switches up backward from how you have it. I noticed both AUX 1 and AUX 2 had 15a fuses installed so I figured it didn't matter.
Once I put it all back together everything worked great up until I went to switch AUX 1 (the main light) on for a fourth or fifth time. It flickered and then shut off. Now it won't come back on. I swapped AUX 1 and AUX 2 fuses and it had no effect. The little orange light on AUX 2 works just fine with either fuse installed.
Looking at the wiring as best as I can see nothing looks wrong. Is it possible I fried out AUX 1 switch by not having a relay/fuse inline ahead of the switch? The switch appears to work normally (blue when off, amber when "on" ...I clearly have no idea what I'm doing
