Gordon,

I just had the same experience. In my case, problem was a
deteriorated/broken ground connector.

First check the grounds on a 6 or 7 point ground asttachment device
mounted to wall above the fuse/relay mounting under the dash.  Approach
from under the dash at left side, above, generally, and the left of the
clutch.. No relay.  What year is vanagon?.  Ground cluster under dash
-83-85 -seem to be different from later models, as I remember.
