I believe that on a 70 it went up the side of the steering column with the TS wires and connected up there to the steering column bearing which carried the current over to the steering column shaft. The horn button makes the switch between the shaft and a wire that runs down the inside of the shaft and jumps over the rubber coupling to the grounded steering gearbox. Do you have a Bentley manual? I think it describes both early and late systems. If your steering shaft is not hollow, then 70 must have been the first year of the late system. - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <type3-off@vwtype3.org> For more help, see http://vwtype3.org/list/
