DC_ Posted March 11, 2020 Author Share Posted March 11, 2020 Found this which puts me at ease more although I’ve not got the nice barrel with wings.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC_ Posted March 11, 2020 Author Share Posted March 11, 2020 Hmmmm would this fit the switch I ordered from RB ? 🤔 https://www.lrparts.net/536913-land-rover-series-3-ignition-barrel-and-key-for-diesel-1968-1971.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 I don't know, never seen that style of switch on a UK vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC_ Posted March 11, 2020 Author Share Posted March 11, 2020 It states it for the Aussie Perentie but also the series models. Hmmmm. Might just try it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC_ Posted March 14, 2020 Author Share Posted March 14, 2020 Winner Winner Chicken Dinner !! New ignition switch arrived, fitted it this afternoon. Everything all cleaned up. Boom result! Actually a good bit of difference in the starting up. Does seem a lot stronger now. A nice end to the problem. 3 new relays and an ignition “Lucas” switch = £38 Used the same barrel in the new switch so same key and all is good. 😎 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC_ Posted March 14, 2020 Author Share Posted March 14, 2020 https://rimmerbros.com/Item--i-PRC2734P1 This did the job Mo and 30 amp relays were really just to renew the old ones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve b Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 That type of ignition switch is correct for the military build spec - no steering lock . Good result DC , always nice to find a clear fault . cheers Steve b 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
