Subject:auxiliary driving lights problem

Hi All,

I have a problem with my dealer (dealer in Germany -
the Westy was purchased there) installed VW Driving
Lights that I don't understand...

Issue: there is a switch in the Aux. Switch location
that operates the Aux. driving lights (they are the
ones integrated near the front turn signals that you
can buy after-market). Well, I through that switch to
use the aux. driving lights (while the regular head
lights were on) and then the high beams turned off...
so then I had just lows and aux. lights. Turned
everything off and then hit the regular light switch -
no lights, hit the aux. switch and the aux. lights
came on... now, no matter what combination of switch,
only the aux. lights work. I can "flash" the brights
and they flash on/off but don't stay on.

The evil aux. lights seem to have taken over! They
look cool as heck but I sure want ALL my lights to
work. Checked fuses in panel and they are fine...

About the Westy Van - bought new in Germany in 1986
(U.S. Specs - military purchase).

Any suggestions? I think the two light switches must
be integrated somehow but darned if I know how it all
works!
