Thanks Colin. Unfortunately Dad doesn't have a spare 1800E computer lying around. I do know now that it is something about the high-beam relay. I think its pulsing is causing electromagnetic interference with the computer, because moving the wire away from the computer eliminates the symptoms. We did try a different headlight relay (another used one) and it caused the same symptoms. When I hooked up a newer single relay, I couldn't replicate the symptoms. Of course the new relay wasn't made for hi-lo beams, so it doesn't have the see-saw action in it. Very strange....
