Question on Ignition Switch
Wrong Forum I'm moving it.
Its been awhile (two years) since I disassembled my ignition switch for rekeying and I just reassembled it. However when I turn it all the way to the right like I am starting the car its stays in this position and doesn't spring back to the "on" position like a normal car ignition so I think something is wrong. It does this with the electrical part installed or removed. The question is which piece the electrical portion or the switch itself controls the start spring back to on switch function. Anyone have any idea what is wrong. It looks like this.

If you remove the electrical section with the 2 screws, there is a cross that engages the key section. I believe inside the electrical section is a return spring. When you install the electrical section, have the key in the off position and you should have start return.

The spring is in the electrical part (separately replaceable) of the system, and it can fail, as can other parts of that switch.
