FYI... the car is a 69 AT squareback Check the fuses. It's also possible that someone switched some of the wires on the fuse box so that the 2 low beam fuses supply the 2 filaments on the driver's side while the 2 hi beam fuses supply the 2 RHS filaments. Do some testing at night by pulling out fuses one at a time to make sure that you don't have both filaments lit on the same side at the same time. >From L to R in the fuse box the fuses should be: L running lights R running lights L low beam R low beam L hi beam R hi beam - Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ------------------------------------------------------------------- Too much?
