Hi all,
My ignition switch was playing up so I replaced it. The old (original) one has the four big pins plus the two small pins (like the photo attached) The one I got has all the same four big pins, but does not have the two small pins But everything seems to work properly with the new switch (minus the two small pins), horn, indicators, lights, radio, brake lights, the lot all seem to work ok. Car starts too - which is a bonus (IMG:style_emoticons/default/evilgrin.gif) Can anyone please tell me what the two small pins are for and what I can expect to not work with a switch that does not have them? Thanks all in advance, Dave |

Thanks Jim, that's very helpful. I'm happy to not ave any buzzer system and happy to not have the sidelights on with indicator on with ignition off battery draining feature. But I now find my blue high beam light does not illuminate. Maybe that is due to one of the two small pins missing. Or possibly some completely new and baffling problem. CheersDave
