no ignition

[david]

sorry to state the obvious but if you have 0 power there must be a feed problem from the battery , how did you test the battery ?

old fashion way,positive + negetive and bang nearly knocked me self out doing so.

[audinut]

Have you got a multimeter?

[Error404]

so is the ignition switch located in the barral or around the steering column?

yes if you remove the parcel shelf below the drivers side dash you can see the electrical connector to the ignition switch on the barrel - black horseshoe shaped connector with some fat high amp wires going to it

so barrel does'nt need changing,just switch?

[audinut]

Surely he shouldnt lose radio power if the ign switch is gone?

Yes, just the electrical switch portion. See my previous post with the DIY pdf.

thats what i thought

[david]

suppose i might be able to get a new switch off fleebay
or stealers only

[A80Avant]

if going after an ignition switch, stay away from the fleebay ones. they are cheap immitations and break down in a few months. pay the extra quid and get the stealer one

[david]

just seen this on fleebay

is this what needs changing?

[A80Avant]

does anyone knows how the switch comes off? i've pull the socket out of the switch,but cannot get the switch out of the ignition barrel.is it held by clips or do i have to just pull alittle harder?
