Hi All, Another problem Ignition switch has failed. No output to Starter Solenoid. Everything else checked with DVM on route by process of illimination. So have conclude it must be key switch contacts. Installed temporary momentary push button to bypass key switch so I can still use car. New switches aren't available as far as I can tell. Maybe someone has a good one. Does anyone refurbish these ignition switches or is the electrical part the same as fits any other cars, after all it is Bosch who supply most makes? How do you get the switch out? There are two small holes 90 deg apart in the plastic bezel (ring) that goes round the key switch, are these for grub screws/hex scews? Doesn't seem to unscrew, but may be too gentle! This is an early switch so does NOT have the steering lock attatchment. As always any help/advice would be appreciated. Whilst I can obviosly still use the car with the push button solution (many new cars have this now) it does do anything for originality!! _________________ Graham |

Graham, a couple of thoughts. Can the switch be dismantled? Maybe an option. Also have a chat to a Bosch service centre. It may have been used in another car, Porsche won't tell you but Bosch maybe able to. |

Thanks Jim. Not sure if it can be dismantled yet. Will certainly try Bosch Srvice Centre |
