Ignition switch / ignition lock switch. VW Beetle 1300 | 1302 - 8/70 to 7/71. VW Beetle 1200 - 8/70 to 7/75. Type 14 Karmann Ghia - 8/70 to 7/71. VW Bus - 8/70 to 1974. VW Type 181 - 8/70 to 2/73.
Most ignition locks consist of two parts: a mechanical part operated with the key, and the electrical part behind it. Many people want to replace everything, but in most cases only the electrical part is broken. If you also replace the mechanical part, you end up with an extra key, which may not be necessary at all.
The electrical part suffers most in the start position, which is the position where the highest current has to be switched. You cannot repair it, you have to replace it. If you do not want to do it a second time, make sure your ignition switch is protected by a starter relay. You can buy these in our shop.
Check your workshop manual for how to remove and refit the lock; this is not the same for all VW models.
