I have removed the ignition switch without removing the key barrel. I edged it off with a screwdriver and have broken off a very small copper object shaped like a 'vee'. Cannot see where it was on the switch.
If I bought a new ignition switch would I have to remove the key barrel in order to fit the switch.
Would like to know how it all goes together and works. Why does the switch make an alarm noise when I push it's plastic spindle in? Is it safe to drive (to a garage, for instance), if I link the ignition wire to + supply wire and start up by shorting starter to + momentarily? Could anyone help with advice or recommend a site where I could see a drawing of this ign. switch? :confused:
