scotta68 Posted August 21, 2015 Share #1 Posted August 21, 2015 Trying to search for prices for a new switch but not finding anything. Who has found the best price and where for the ignition switch ? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djh3 Posted August 21, 2015 Share #2 Posted August 21, 2015 Way pricey. Close to $300 However I am working on a way to work around the OEM switch. Some guys say boats.net I think. Last year a fellow had a switch gobad and it was backordered for almost 2 months I think. So whats gone wrong with yours and whats it doing.

scotta68 Posted August 21, 2015 Author Share #3 Posted August 21, 2015 I have no power with the key, might get a quick bit if I wiggle the key around. I already have your bypass with the switch on it now. I read a write up about repairing it but if I can find a good price, I will just replace it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djh3 Posted August 22, 2015 Share #7 Posted August 22, 2015 WOW'zer 154 is the cheapest I have heard of anyone finding one for. Now how long it takes to get......... Going to do a little research this weekend on a back up plan that would run oh maybe 30 bucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djh3 Posted August 22, 2015 Share #9 Posted August 22, 2015 Working on this switch idea in a couple hours so hope I come up with something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djh3 Posted August 22, 2015 Share #10 Posted August 22, 2015 OK I have a OEM replacement switch idea worked out. If you already have my bypass harness installed and for some reason the switch goes south. I have a harnes you can plug in and install an on off universal ignition switch. Remove your old switch (toughest part of whole job) and install your universal ignition switch in the surround. For the switch pictured it took a 3/4" x 2" washers. Tighten the jam nuts up so the switch dont move around and your good to go. I would paint the washers black to blend in but was just working on mock up.
