in both condition... the same problem.Did you test it with engine running or engine switched off?
Both low & high beam are 12V DC.
And when engine is running voltages are as follows.

Low beam is actually produced from the module with 3 LED chips and high beam module consists only 2 LED chips.
And this is the reason why the current consuption is lower on high beam and cable size was reduced accordingly.
In general LEDs are way more efficient than halogen light bulbs and therefore produce much more light with less wattage.
ok! i'll try...
ah, i forgot to tell you that with my original longcode, and original wirecode (without bcm pin 5 to 10 headlight)
i find that t5 original plug, have to pin 10 (drl, have 12V with only drl on, and 5v with position light on)
and pin 4 always 12V. I don't know if is important or not.
now i have in t6 plug, pin 10 to bcm(5 or 6) and pin 12 the original wire of pin 4 of t5 plug(drl +)
...
And by the way, all of the wiring from the halogen setup(either H4 or twin H7) can be reused for the LED lights except for the side lights.
Two new wires have to be run from BCM plug B
PIN5 to LHS lamp PIN10
PIN6 to RHS lamp PIN10
The reason is below.

This is the voltage produced by BCM to the LED headlamps on PIN10 when side lights are switched ON.
At the same time 12V DC is supplied to PIN12.
And when DRLs are switched ON both PIN10 & PIN12 receive 12V DC.
If there is only one PIN(either 10 or 12) supplied with 12V DC DRLs/sides will remain OFF. Obviously this should not happen when retrofit was carried out properly.
Hi Guys! Really great post!
I would like to ask if all your tips are applicable to T5 2010 equipped with H7? I would like to make a conversion of my T5 to T6 with LED but I am not sure if this headlight may be P&P same as you gents do in yours T6s? Thanks in advance for any help.
Thanks for quick replay @tommoyes is possible, i made the same conversion from t5 2012, but i tell to you, is a really hard work! The headlight conversion is only the top of the iceberg!
you have the tailgate or barn door model?
I took them about 7 hours to fit the lights and front parking sensors. I got the whole package of lights, self levelling mechanism and headlight washers. The rotary switch has been swapped out for a single one now that just does internal lighting dimmer. All done with factory parts.
Thanks for quick replay @tommo
I have Multivan with tailgate, but didn't sort out if tailgate will fit directly from T6 into my T5. How was in your case, is it easy to replace tailgate?
Try hex 66 in byte 18.
