I thought all 914s had a diode on the charging light, but looking at the 74/75/76 diagrams I don't see one. A certain green car doesn't shut off when you turn the key off, but disconnecting the charge light wire kills it.

What would happen if you put a resistor in the circuit in series with the light? I wonder if the bootstrap functionality would be affected?
