This is an early steering column--'70 -- with an oddball ignition switch. It has a VW logo and the key positions are marked LIG. PARTIDA TRAVA DESL. The key is not a Porsche key. I wonder if it might be for a Mexican or Brazilian Bug...? (Stupid DAPO!!!)
Anyway, I have power to the column but it doesn't get past the switch. And I want to replace the whole cylinder anyway to use a Porsche key. When I first got the car I pulled the engine right away. I didn't test the lights and switches at the time except for starting and running it a bit. It was a -6 conversion that ran like KRAP.
I can only get two positions with the key but the wheel locks and unlocks. And I have no idea how to get that key cylinder and switch out. Can anybody help? (Haynes sure isn't any help on this one.)
