Is the spring that returns key (switch) from start to run in the key lock or
in the ignition switch? Thanks

In all my VW,s (Type 3,s) the spring is in the switch itself. I believe
they are the same in the beetle etc.
On occasions I,ve had a switch fail( after only ~ 30 yrs, what crummy
products!) and tried to pull them to bits and clean contacts
whatever. I,ve never succesfully put one back together though!.
There is a lot of info ( and very knowledgeable blokes) in the RAMVA news
group. This news group seems to have withereed a bit
Best of luck
John
