My dilemma continues, ignition switch woes

[H.G.P.]

At the prospect of 69 ignition switch (without steering lock) NLA, I attempted to install a universal switch.

Well, I got the engine to crank, fuel pump to operate with ignition, and the car nearly started. But the starter seems to want to continue to crank! So I shut down for fear of burning the starter up. The car sounded loud also.

What next? Any ideas appreciated. The inoperable switch is 8276/2, and I am attempting to use a universal switch as a replacement for it.

Hello

Seems like your universal switch has a problem on the starter circuit.

Are there any marks/digits/numbers on the pins ?

There is an early non locking ignition switch up on e-bay at the moment. I don't have the link but do a search and I'm sure you can find it.

Thanks Roland and rvanderpyl. This new switch I obtained today has prongs. They are labeled. I was able to start the car fine. I just don't know which of the wires belong on terminal prongs labeled IGN, and ACC.

Currently, I have the starter on ST, Battery on BAT, fuel pump on IGN. Not certain if the fuel pump belongs on ACC instead, or whether this makes a difference . But the car starts up fine. Do not know about the alternator wire into the switch either! 5 wires remain to be attached, but at what prongs?



Thanks.
