Her69fastback 2 Report post Posted May 28 Looking to replace the ignition switch in the 69. Doesn’t want to start sometimes. Starter in new & starter solenoid is new. You have to turn the key a few times then it starts. What a good ignition switch? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dcm0123 15 Report post Posted May 29 Rock Auto has Motorcraft for $100 and Standard for $20. I would buy Standard. Suggest you make sure the started relay is grounded securely to clean metal. Seen this cause similar problems before. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RPM 1,034 Report post Posted May 30 I sanded the paint below the solenoid for a ground that is hidden. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dcm0123 15 Report post Posted May 30 If you have sheet metal screws holding this on, I would replace them with nuts and bolts. Sanding the paint under the tab or running a separate wire from a known good ground would work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
