Ignition switch and connector removal
« on: 02 November 2008, 21:00:26 »

[size=12]To remove connector from ignition switch:[/size]

Disconnect battery
Turn ignition key to position '1'
Insert a small screwdriver into the connector release hole, keeping the screwdriver at the key end of the hole,  and press to release the latch, at the same time as pulling / levering the connector off the switch. It is a tight fit but if it doesnt move you havnt deprssed the latch enough or have pressed on the wrong part of the latch.


To remove switch:
With key in position '1', push a welding rod or allen key into the barrel release hole and remove the lock barrel.

Now remove the switch fixing screw and the connector should move towards you slightly and come away. Do not simply try levering the switch off with the barrel still in place, you will distort the hole for the other holding pin at the back of the switch.
