Title: Hazard Switch help
Post by: s3racing on June 10, 2018, 09:55:29 PM

Probably a silly ?

On our classic beetles are the hazards only on when the ignition switch is on. I would think they should be over constant power mit Ignition switched or am I wrong here?

Thanks for any help

Cheers René

On late Beetles, the 4 ways work with no key in the ignition.

The strangest thing is the headlights.  On some late cars the headlights will go out when you turn the key off (but the running lights stay on).  Then on others, the lights can be on mit the key in your pocket.

My June 74's lights go out when the key's off, but my Aug 74 (MY 75), the lights stay on.  My brother's 73 Super's lights went off with the key.  My 72 Super's lights stayed on.
Jag, what do your 75's lights do?
