[T3] Wire Question

[Dave Hall]

The brown catches people out in the UK too - it's used for the live mains
wire! 

When I bought my Variant, the flashers didn't work - someone had blown up
the hazard flasher switch by connecting the brown wire to the + side of the
flasher bulb!

Be careful with black wires in your VW, it's used for +12V on VWs.  I've
never understood why.

I can't either Dave.  In my line of work who works on a lot of different
makes of vehicles.  I have to remind myself of this when I work on my first
love old Volkswagens or you will let out some magic smoke.  Once you let
that magic smoke out on some stuff you can't put it back in.
