    I believe it's the same as the Mk2 Golf.
    Since found out the following models in the VW range have the same switch.
    Golf 2 1990-1992 all models
    Golf 3 1992-1997 all models
    Polo 1992-2001 all models
    Passat 1988-1996 all models
    All T4s 1991-2003
    Plus various Lupos Caddys &Ventos.

    Understand how it works, troubleshoot logically BEFORE replacing parts.

    It's back. Picked it up yesterday. Dipstick didn't properly test drive it so it has a crooked steering wheel ("But I marked it!") so it's going back next week.

    Here's the rub.....$792.

    $65 ex gst for the switch. A few dollars more for a new steering column nut and washer. Four hours labour. At $120 per hour (for a bloke who can't put a steering wheel on straight). And then because the DOKA sat there for a week and had the original and now ancient battery in it.....it died too. Another $220.

    Bloody glad they didn't service it as well - it's due. But it'll go to a local solo operator instead.
