I don't know if any of the rest of you have run into an issue with the Meyle 100 941 0006 dimmer relay. I had a problem with mine in which the headlights would not work predictably. Flicking the dimmer, sometimes they'd switch correctly (low to high, high to low) and then sometimes they'd just go completely off by flicking the dimmer switch.
A little alarming, to say the least, to be cruising at night and flick the dimmer expecting to go to high beams and they just switch off...
ERA was great, in that they willingly replaced the dimmer relay for me...twice. However, all three of these Meyle relays did some variation along the same lines. I took one apart, and the design flaw is in a tiny metal blade that doesn't always bent predictably, and this blade is used to flip a mechanical switch back and forth.
Anyhow, after quite a bit of fruitless effort to find a non-Meyle replacement (I was just about to design my own using power FET's...) I found the replacement part that works great.
I found it at a vintage VW site called
www.airheadparts.com.
Part number is VW 111-941-583. This is a direct replacement to the designed in by ERA. Price at my time of purchase was $64.37. Not cheap, but cheaper than the heart attack that Meyle relay was going to give me.
Thought I'd pass on the tip.
