Subject:      Headlight problem?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Volks:

I've been following the recent thread on the headlight problem.  I'm
having a "similar" problem with mine. Symptoms:

1)Key on headlights work ONLY on Hi beams
2)Flasher results in more light prior to headlights going out.
3)12V only on 1 wire at headlights

I've tried to chase the electrical gremlins to no avail. I think it's
either the ignition switch or headlight switch.  I'm leaning to the
headlight switch as I do have hi beams.  Am I missing something?

I'm new to Vanagons so please bear with me.
