Your switch is dead...

You should have relays in at least the high beam if you are running more
than 200W combined high beam.

Good news is Audi Fox, 1974-1980 Rabbit / Scirocco / Jetta / Cabriolet all
have the same switch.

Subject: Some Light Consversation

A couple months ago I had the light switch go bad on my 87 vanagon.  Well
today the lights went out again.

They work if I hold the blinker switch up but the entire light bar comes on
and blinds the oncoming driver.  Plus it's just damn hard to drive and shift
gears that way.

I have checked the fuses high and low.  I have checked the connections at
the switch and the headlights themselves.  I have read the Bentley and still
cannot find the solution to my problem.

What else could it be gurus?  Is there a relay I am missing?  I am at a
loss.

Thanks in advance.
