Many thanks for the on- and off-list suggestions: ignition switch, Hall sender, and loose things in the fuse box area. It doesn't seem to be the Hall sender (i.e., it's intact, seems well fastened, seems to pass the multimeter test). I'll look for loose things in the fuse box area; I'll even try to find places to attach the ones I find...

I once tried to take out and replace an ignition switch. After breaking the existing switch while trying to take it out (and I think I broke something it attached to), I wasn't really satisfied with my subsequent installation of the new switch. I've tried a "search ignition switch in vanagon" in the archives, but I don't get anything that says "here's the idiot's step-by-step HOW to take out the ignition switch and to put a new one back in". Any guidance? (please??)

Thank you all again!

Chris
