Hi all
Rewiring a 70 bus! Could some one please send me a simple diagram to show the wires from starter to fuse box and to ignition!! Just trying to start it from the key. Do not need any other wiring for lights ect, just for ignition! The black wire on ignition how does that go onto fuse box along with red and blk/ red ?
Thank you all

wiring diagrams are in Technical here on the Samba. For $100 an hour someone will probably draw you a custom one but I suggest you just print one of the ones here and use it. I took the diagram of mine, legend etc., on a flash drive to a print shop and printed a couple large copies of them. Then I could write on one and keep one like new. Checked each wire to be sure it wasn't molested. Took about 3 or 4 hours to go thru the whole bus.
