    Ignition Switch - Positive Earth

    Hi, Anyone know a source for a positive earth ignition switch? I was going through the wiring behind my dash this weekend, and found some of the contacts were actually broken, which explains a bit of the rough running occasionally.

    Related, looking to replace the wiring harness a this one as been pig-tailed to death. Anyone replaced the wiring recently and have tips or comments on how it went?

    Thanks!

          No problem. Here's one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/NOS-OEM-LUCA...item3aae6b414f

          Only $274 + S&H

          I'd try Ike.

                          Guys and Gals, Got the switch and in process of putting the old barrel lock in. Seems that the end of the lock with the small detent pin that slides into the switch is too large. Has anyone run into varying sizes on the replacement. Put differently, even with the detent depressed, it still won't slide in. ( FYI,I do have to key in the lock, tumblers retracted! )

                          Many thanks

                          Follow up:

                          I ended up taking the switch down to the component pieces. What I found was that in the keyway, there was a brass sleeve that made it impossible to have the tumbler fit in without either removing it, or filing it down. All good now.
