Ignition barrel

[froggy]

So my relay for the indicators came today, great fitted it and..........nothing well except the front passenger side, tried all bulbs still nothing, started pulling things to peices to trace wiring etc and when i refitted the steering cowling (was checking wiring to indicator switch) something dropped to the floor. Yes you've guessed it the fitting on the rear of theindicator barrel was now in pieces. :evil:
Question is how do i change it and where is the best place to get one from?
I'll soon have more keys than a piano!

C & C have a custom key service they should be able to supply the barrel and perhaps match it to a current key you already have?

its not the barrel but the switch on the end thats fell to peices.
Do i need a complete barrel or is the switch available seperatly?

 

[Guest]

its available separately, but might be hard to find a 68-72 one.

I have a spare, part number 211 905 889 B.....

all I want is the barrel and body .....

if its what your after drop me a pm

i'll try and get the switch off (small grub screw and pick out the thread lock)

Switch will come out separately if you bend the wires enough to make room, all you need to do is
(as mentioned) remove the tiny grub screw.

I've just been through the job of removing the whole lot (to fit a new lock) and it is a bitch of a job...
...and found a squirt of WD freed the old lock up nicely.
I put it all back and now my switch won't engage the starter. :roll:

Did it fall to pieces or just come free from the lock?

Stick a screwdriver in the switch and see if you can start the engine.

The whole of the switch fell to peices, but its fixed now, thanks Araon
