It looks like relay 21 is your "Emerg. flash/turn sig. relay".

Try pulling it and see what happens.

Your Vanagon is a 90 or 91 ?

@ the list.

This is a far fetched suggestion, but if the flasher relay were
shorting out could 15 power to the relay be getting shorted to ground
thus killing the ignition?
