       On my Alfetta, the center headlights are the high beams.  Have you 
been driving all this time with no high beams?  They are switched with the 
lever on the steering column.
       For what it is worth, my 75 Alfetta came new with the flashers hooked 
up to the low beams.  I moved one wire in the fuse box so they flash the high 
beams.  That allows flashing the lights when meeting other Alfas when the 
lights are not on, which was the original intent.  It also allows flashing 
when the headlights are on.  The flasher is on the same lever on the steering 
column.
       I am also sick of all the postings about what computer platform people 
are using.  I couldn't care less.  We just as well have a topic about which 
stereo makes your car fastest or about the proper shade of yellow to paint 
the shift knob.
