I did have someone else tell me that this may be the case, do you know if your mk1 does it too?RichardHall said
What was common practice on VWs a good few years ago and other cars was that the rear fog only worked with Dipped beam or front fog lamps, when you switched to full main beam the rear off light went out. reasoning I think is iif the fog is bad enough for rear fog to be needed, it will be no use switching main beam on as all you will get is glare back .

look behind the fusebox for a grey/yellow spade wire, if its ce1 fusebox it should go to M/1. If its been put into M/2, thats why its going off when main beam is selected.
