Igntion switch replacement pdf

Here is an ignition switch replacement written for the C4s but it will apply to a B3/B4 very closely. Same switch PN. Same procedure. Differences will come in the removal of the instrument cluster. Start with this to "eliminate it from further enquiries":

Maybe the alarm immob has died? Find the alarm module under the dash and make sure the multipin connector is still plugged in if it has one, pull the multipin and check none of the pins are burnt

Brown pins = heat = short = fire = oops

hi
you say,no ignition lights,does this means also no working gauges in the cluster?
if so,than you have a problem with fuse 12,this means also no reverse lights,check this
you can see if fuse 12 is broking or you can measure 12v on it if ignition is on
i just see on my wirediagram that fuse 12 also give power to the immo so that can explane why the engine shuts offaudi coupe quattro b2 2.2 20vt project (573hp-626nm)
TWINCHARGED power,zero lag

Yh sunroof was sealed shut when i bought it o well ... anyways think i found the problem ... i checked all fuses non blown BUT i managed finally once i typed specific words in that the 208 relay for the fuel pump also controls ypur ignition? Meaning to say that if the 208 intimittant relay in the j17 slot doesnt give signal to the ecu i wont have ignition am i correct? Plus when i pulled that relay out and had a look inside there was 3 tiny electromagnet look alikes and the very top one was slightly green (bad earth?) Anyone recon right track here lol
