Mark,
See attached link. This is a DIY job. It does take
a little patients and time but it's not complicated.
I replaced my switch about a year ago because my headlights
quit working. There are some shortcuts to the procedure
listed on the website. It's been so long ago I can't
remember the shortcuts. If I think of them I'll let you
know. Basically the lock cylinder has to be removed to gain
access to the ignition switch. The ignition switch is
attached to the lock cylinder with one screw on the inside of
the cylinder.

Good luck

HI,

I had a start but no run the other day.. I had to "hold" the key in the
run position, and got home.  So I've got the new switch and I'm looking
at the Bently for doing the replacement of the ignition switch.  Is this
a diy?,  I pulled the colum down and have had a look, but I'm not sure
whether to delve into it.  Anyone have comments.  I'm on digest, and I
can't seem to get on to the archives. So Pmail is appreciate.

Mark
