Harness Diode question

  I'm doing my retro with e55 bi xenons, and because I'm on an h4 system, I want to make sure the low beam doesn't cut off when the high beam is turned on, so I'm using a diode to connect them.
  I was seeking the 1N4005 diode, which is shown in most designs. I couldn't locate that particular one. 1N4001 and 1N914(https://www.apogeeweb.net/circuitry/1n914-glass-axial-switching-diode-datasheet-pdf-download.html) were the ones I found. The 1N4001 is described as being 50V.1A, and I'm not sure what the other digits mean.
  Will 1N4001 work in place of 1N4005 in any case?
  Thanks!

  Does your query relate to simulation? May I know which Ansys tool you are using?
  Please make use of this forum for simulation-based problems related to Ansys tools.
