Ignition Switch Chat (the Electrical bit at the Back of the Key Barrel)

[JoKer]

I've had a couple of people ask me about these now (1x from Sweden)



Part #14



and it doesn't help I have a bucket of 15x Ignitions (9x with Keys) from Ron's collection



all 40 - 50 years old now

on the Avenger Groups we've had mention the Land Rover Defender part LOOKS very same

can anyone confirm?

Mate had a chat to Graeme (avengerparts on these forums) and he mentions not interchangeable

couple of Links for "all the same part" 
: near $70 drop shipped from Au

"Ignition Switch suitable for Land Rover 90 110 130 Petrol Diesel 1987"

https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/car-parts-accessories/landrover/listing/5275020966

or NZ$40 + shipping Uk

"Land Rover Defender 110 PRC8230 Switch Ignition NEW"

www.ebay.com/itm/254887604047

one of those should fit - but might not' kind of deals



I'm waiting for Christopher to confirm if he fixed it or not with my suggestions 

I really did feal 'mean' not wanting to ship to Sweden an un-guaranteed 2nd hand part when it looks like the new part will give piece of mind

Christopher A's positive reply :

Dear Jared It worked a treat!

The Land Rover ignition switch needed to be filed a little bit to make it fit but apart from that - no problems.
Thanks for your help 

Best Regards Chris

Now I do not know if he had the "Early Round" Arrangement or the "Later Rectangle" layout of Plugs

(I learnt about these after starting the thread)

So use that info as you may

Some will note in my Bucket there was only 1x Round & if it works : it is spoken for sorry

I have also found this Part online

www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004191762228.html

which may imply the Switch "alone" could be available 'seperate' as well from the same or similar seller/s

(A matter of discovering the right terms to search sometimes : the hardest step)
