locking or non-locking ?

[BOYER73S]

It is non locking but apparently not the same as 64- 68

I will post in tech area maybe someone can post a pic of a correct one then I will know what I am looking for

The non locking 1969 ignition switches have spade terminals at the rear rather than accepting "bullet" connectors as per the earlier units.

Photo as below from AASE sales.

I have one that I recently replaced. It is functional, but is original to my car and rather well used. (I had a bad connection in the firewall plug that was the real culprit.)

From the quality of your cars Clyde, I think you would be looking for something a little closer to NOS?

PM me if you are interested

cheers

Thanks Nathan

What numbers are in the plastic near the spade connectors please

A pic of the back would be awesome

What new switch did you use please?

I found a NOS unit that looked identical to this one I removed, pictured below,

Although I did not check all the numbers on the back, the spades were numbered the same as I used a photo to confirm the connections.

It was expensive, but was the same key code (K330) with a pair of original keys, which were long gone on my car.

I thought about using an earlier bullet connector switch (which are more readily available and I believe the keys are the identical) and changing the harness connectors or getting a new one made up from Kroon. This may be a something to consider?

Not sure what your issue is, but this could be another option:

Issue is it had been replaced by aftermarket previously so no idea what I am looking for

You are looking for the switch in post # 4 and #6. It was used in 1968 and 1969.
