I was told that the 75-76 turn signal switch is the same as a 924 (I think 77-80), has anyone tried this before?

Here is one on ebay, they look they same. Same pin connector...

common between cars......such as

1. Ljet aar
2. ignition switch

But.......I'm not going to tell you it will work in case it.......... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blowup.gif)

I know that a 924 WIPER switch will work on a 914. It gives you the feature that when you pull back on the stem it gives you 12v to a wire for a 12v washer pump.

That ebay 924 switch's part number starts with 111 xxx xxx which makes it a standard VW part.

Hey Jim, You used this same one? Did you retain the intermitant wiper feature after the change out? Any info on the wiring changes. I've read Andy's article but I need to replace my assembly anyway (it sticks). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif)

I think the only visible difference is that the 924 turn signal switch has one one rider for the horn.

Functionally interchangable.

O.K., not trying to steal the thread here, but let me get this intermittent wiper thing straight.

I have a '75. I live in the PNW where rain is in the form of mist 200+ days a year... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) My car currently does NOT have an intermittent wiper position. What's the scoop on getting that to work?? Where does the relay plug in for this upgrade?? I really, REALLY want intermittent wipers. . . Help a brutha out. . .

Based on information here I found a few years ago I bought PN 111953519H plugged it in and got nothing but burnt fuses. This PN is for 72-73 Beetle, Ghia and type 3. The part mentioned in this post, with a different pn, is for 72-79 Beetle, 72-74 Ghia/ type 3. Does any body have an insight to why this won't work on my 75, or how to make it work?

Well, I ordered the one I showed in post #1, its exactly the same. Except for a few things, #1 the seller put a turn signal switch made in CHINA in a Meyle box, #2 the wiring colors are different, but the actual wiring is the same.

I knew it was made in China bc the seller put a white sticker on it, that said made in china and the original Meyle sticker was broken. I'm pretty upset about this, DO NOT buy from QandE autoparts. You can tell that it is also sub-par quality (kind of ironic compared to the sellers name)

Instead for another $10, I'd probably by this one. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/VW-BUG-GHIA...sQ5fAccessories

I put it in anyways and at first, the pass blinker kept blinking when the turn signal indicator was neutral, after about 20 mins I found that the prongs were about 2-3 mm longer on the new model and if I pulled the connector out about that much the pass blinker stopped... very weird. After I got things together it appeared to work ok, except if I turned the pass blinker on to fast it would blink and stop, I think I am going to return it to the seller and buy the one above...

The -G is for the windshield wipers, the -F is for the blinkers, not sure what the difference between -f and -fmy is though.

The "my" is the maker which in this case is Meyle.

Well Horseshit. I just realized I ordered a 513F instead of the 519F. Wonder if I can ship it back for less than the $12 they chg'd me for shipping?
