For a while now Ol' Stainless has been paying homage to BTTF by occasionally refusing to start-just a click when the key was turned ( just like Marty in the film when he bangs his head on the steering wheel to make it start) and I decided to sort it as it was getting more and more frequent.
I remember an article somewhere that said that the Rover SD1(1976-1986) shared the same part so I got a genuine part off eBay for a tenner and free P&P.
Sorted it today,dead easy job only had to swap the connector plug over,5 minute job unplugging the tangs and the new part fitted better than the original!
There were only 2 left on the eBay so I bought both being very selfish and thinking of the future?
Roverpart number DRC 1382
The original switch had bits rattling inside it,haven't done the Post Mortem on it yet?

#10556 'Ol Stainless' running surprisingly well,Audi A5 2.0T Quattro smug as usual,Wenault Slaguna stationary for the mo',the R.V.Enterprise clocking the U.K.miles up,new fleet addition-Jessica the Daewoo Matiz,silly but 55mpg....!
