Common Repair Uses

• Broken or heat-damaged ignition switch connector housing
• Loose or intermittent electrical contact at the ignition switch
• Corroded terminals causing starting or accessory circuit issues

Installation Notes

Verify connector gender, terminal count, and wire count before installation. Match the existing harness layout and inspect adjacent wiring for heat damage, corrosion, or terminal spread.
