    Hey Jonny!! Buddy of mine used to have one of those 69 model he drove in high school. It was fairly new then!! Great blast from the past. Used it to go everywhere including cutting school many a day!! Most memorable trip was a concert we went to to see Allman Brothers before Duane Allman died.

    How were you able to determine it was a bad switch?

    • @JonnyDIY
      @JonnyDIY  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I believe the switch was leaking fluid. Sometimes they just stop working too. Could hook up a test light to it as well to check

    Just curious if you needed to bleed the brakes after doing this? Thanks

      I didn't, and didnt have any issues. But your mileage may vary. Just test em easy afterwards

    24mm, not imperial ever.
    Every nut bolt, hose etc etc etc on any VW is metric.

      You're correct thank you, but the 2 sizes are almost identical and it's not very tight so no worries on this job 👍
