[crash55]

its not that hard to do yourself the samba.com or youtube can show you how .  Any shop that does vintage VW cars can do it. keep us informed on how it goes

15 dollars at CIP1.com for the switch . also check thesamba.com for tips on how to do it

[crash55]

ramps would work .  jack stands on the tubes where the torsion bars are . make sure your wires & connections are good 1st to be sure it is the switch

[crash55]

[crash55]

with key off take test light & check . that will tell you which circuit is hot all the time .  then take the fuses out turn key on check each end of where the fuse connects that will tell you which is supply to the circuit . also pull the supply (hot wire ) to the coil when you test with key on so you do not burn the points out . I would not trust wire color unless you made the harness .

there are only 4 connections usually negative (ground) positive (power)  signal (comes from ignition coil where the dist . wire connects ) & power for light you can probably look up the info from the tach . brand’s website keep us informed on your progress
