[net.auto] '69 BUG - HELP WITH ELECTRICAL

4373jml@homxb.UUCP (J.LISS) (12/12/85)

HELP, I have a '69 bug.  The horn, gas guage, and signal direction
no longer worked.  They stopped after I heard a popping noise from the
steering wheel.  I beleive the problem is in the electrical portion of
the ignition switch.  According the the shop manual, one must remove the
steering wheel to get the the switch.  New switch is 20$.  So I removed
wheel to get to switch.  Manual then said to "fold out" the direction signal
switch.  Heres the problem, there wasn't enough slack in the cable to pull
out the switch.  The next problem is that these little little parts fell
out of the directional switch.  Question, whats the easiest way to remove
directional switch, can the parts be put back?  Any other suggestions
would be most helpful.
