On my 71 maverick the switch went bad .So i went and bought another one.Put it in now it wont turn all the way back to get the key out?Ive moved the gear up and down to see id it will slip in anoooother hole.But to no avail i dont know what the deal is. Thank you so much
DId you replace just the key tumbler, or the portion that has the rod that goes down the steering column?
i would try to adjust the switch forward to see if the key just wont turn all the to the releasable position otherwise you key cylinder has probably gone bad
I just replaced the tumbler I tried to turn it everyway. Moved the rod up and down .Still nothing. Do they make diffrient switches for locking and non locking columes?
probably. I don't see why they would put the locking mechnism in a switch that has no need of locking. Can you still use something to push the pin in to release the tumbler?
