Mk1 Dip/Ind/Horn Switch

[Trinny]

I was out in van at night, operated rocker switch to dip....
no lights,side yes flash yes(so not a bulb fail) main yes.indicators fine
Got near home on main when that went too, had to buy and wire in aftermarket off/on/on
switch which I thought would sort it as I suspected the rocker switch was at fault.

No...same problem swapped side and main round still no dip/main,had a play with fuses and fusebox,no change so it's got to be the dreaded column switch?

yes they go faulty in the block the solder connections break

I've changed the stalk to another 2nd hand one which feels 'tighter'
Now I can get main and dip(and flash) on the stalk but no dash(speedo or warning) or rear lights until I go back to side lights
then all's ok again???

I'm fitting a better side load door at the mo. My '69 van has always had a
Mk2 type door handle and it should be chrome,
am i right in thinking I just need a l/Hand passenger door handle??

Just to clarify: it's not a sliding door which may use another more triangular(at the lock end)shaped
chrome handle which wouild be rare i imagine, it's a hinged side door Passenger side on
1969 RHD UK van
