Hi please can any one out thier advise how to change the igniton switch and weather it is a item I can buy second hand. I know it is the mechanical action of the key as it started at first with the spare key and know  the red key wont work .
 
The symtoms are the key will not  fully turn , eventualy with rocking it about inside the barrel I can get it to work but it is now getting worse,
Thanks .
John.

The most important thing is to do it NOW. It is a simple exercise BUT the most important thing is to get the key to turn to Position I so that you can press the 'spring' down to release the lock barrell. If you leave it until you cannot do this you'll have mega grief.
