Q: Can you tell from these pictures what the BMW design flaw is?


A: german engineering.

the fact is, germans aren't good with automotive wiring. german designed
vehicles have the ****tiest electrical systems ever created.

Don't blame Lucas so much, because Lucas did make some decent systems for
some British cars. Blame Triumph and MG who wanted the cheapest possible
electrics from Lucas.

Although whoever decided it would be a good idea just to dispense with the
headlight relay and use a 30A switch on the dashboard probably has a special
corner of hell reserved for them. And don't get me started on the ignition
coil designs...
