<02> ignition switch
The ignition switch on my '74 2002 (manual trans.) will no longer turn
to the "start" position. Whatever it is that keeps you from re-engaging
the starter without first turning the switch back to "off" appears to be
permanently blocking the start position. I have several questions:
(1) How do you remove the ignition switch? I have removed the covering
from beneath the switch and was surprised to see that it is housed in a
sizeable piece of metal that also helps support the steering column.
(2) Once removed, is there any hope that a good local locksmith can fix
the problem? (3) If replacement is my only option, does anyone have a
used switch that they would be willing to sell? (4) Finally, is
using a remote starter a viable alternative?
As usual, thanks for any suggestions.
