I have a flaky ignition switch. Some accessories work only with key wiggled in
certain place. So, it looks like there is enough room to replace the electrical part from behind, once fuse panel is out of the way. But what's holding the harness connector on the switch? I can't seem to pull it off and the new one clearly doesn't have any tangs or anything. |

I think I'll need a small channel-lock plier to really pull then. Thanks |

Also without one of these flexi-drivers you're toast getting at the top screw.
