Through 1976, that particular function of the hi/lo beam switch is supposed
to be a "flash-to-pass" feature. My guess is that the "horn brush" broke
and/or some other minor fault occured with the wiring for the horn circuit.
On the other hand, can you flash the high beams by hitting the horn button?
That's possible, too, if someone swapped enough wires around under the dash
by the column. :-)
