warning lamp with Euro lights

[Kneale Brownson]

The explanation I've read (as opposed to understood) is that the relay that
triggers the warning reads the power draw  DIFFERENCE when a bulb is out
and signals based on that difference.   I think Audi wires both sides
separately so that the warning system can work.  If you power one side from
a relayed source on the other side, the warning system cannot function as
designed.
