Anyone have a source for the stock Marinette ignition switches? My Port switch is acting up again.

Thanks,

Jeff

Jeff, The O E switches are crap. Try replacing them with marine grade key switches and your problem will be forever solved. I did the lower helm and the flybridge several years ago and still wonder why Marinette used a damn toggle switch. The installation is straight forward but will take some time. A stepped drill bit makes the job of enlarging the holes easy. I also removed the ign fuses and replaced them with breakers. Rick

Got mine off the shelf at West Marine when the toggle thing fell apart. Even I could wire it.
