All the wiring diagrams are available on The Samba website, just click on the thumbnails for the year you want. Here is the address for the page with the Beetle wiring diagrams:

thanks a bunch bizarre that would be great.
my car just seems to cut out completely at times, and only with a nudge of the electricals is it restarted. i have plenty of battery power as the headlights, indicators, and starter motor still work, but everything else just comes to a grinding halt.

any ideas as to what is wrong where?

If you are nudging the key i an guessing it is the key switch

It is at the bottom of the barrel

If it is the fuse box you are nudgeing it will be a bad connector on the control circuit

Whatever - i will copy the manual tomorrow.

Can u u2u me an email address??

See ya

thanks a lot for the help, ive isolated the problem to around the ignition barrel.

my whole car does need rewiring, its becoming a hazard, i'm told that i can buy a whole beetle wiring kit from somewhere, does anyone know if this is true, its whereabouts and cost?

lol good luck. I was trying to check the wiring in my super the other day. I know that 90% of it was factory style wire (Traces, thickness, type and ends) The only problem is that a large part of my wires are a different colour than what is in the diagrams. I even ended up with two wires that I am not even ment to have (Yes standard factory wires) The car wont run if they are not hooked up to the fuse box. I also remember reading on SAMBA that you can't get the entire wiring loom for a super. It may pay to talk to them over there.

Kroozin_Kikko change your distrubitor. I had the same problem in my notch and it took me months to figure it out. Broken fibre shim in the dissy, small bounce of the shalf at the wrong time was all it took to short the ignition and kill the motor.
