Title: Ignition Switch Failure Post by: Hurrying Pete on February 12, 2014, 11:34:40 PM The ignition Switch on my VX Coupe has failed. It will switch on the starter motor but does not power up the other electrics. Have stripped the switch down to a riveted plastic assembly with 5 wires coming from it. If I drill out the rivets goodness knows if it is repairable or if I could reassemble it. The only switch I can find in the UK is for a Monte Carlo but the has a 4 wire loom. Are these switches still available in Italy?

I have a spare for the gamma which is five wire, same era, so should fit. Geoff Title: Re: Ignition Switch Failure Post by: Hurrying Pete on February 15, 2014, 12:02:39 AM Hi Geoff, that sounds great. Much relieved, let me know your price.

Might be worth a punt! Title: Re: Ignition Switch Failure Post by: Hurrying Pete on March 03, 2014, 09:57:43 PM Sadly Geoff's kind offer proved that Beta & Gamma have different switches. I looked at that used one on Ebay & found that a new one had also appeared on there. I bid on the new one, got it & the VX is back on the road.
