Re: The friendly Quattro List - dumb Lucas joke



Yes, but at least the wiring diagram fits on one page, so they do!

By the way, a listed commented how clever it was that nothing worked if one
bulb failed - I cant remember which - but surely, that is the worst possible
system design, if something has failed, give that as a message, but dont
compromise the rest of the systems, it makes fault finding illogical, and
totally non intuitive IMHO. The small check matrix on 89 on Coupes was
excellent, then at least you knew what had failed. But if my digital dash
goes out and the engine stops it seems it could in theory be due to a loose
brakelight bulb, or maybe I've just lost the thread in the unaccustomed heat
in the UK - it must be almost 20 C!! AND the sun is shinning..
