That's a bad switch. I can't envision how it could be anything else. BUT, if you want to be absolutely sure, remove the solenoid wire from the back of the ignition switch and put a 12v test light on that ignition switch pole instead. Then repeat your jiggle test. If you can get the light to come on by jiggling the key then you absolutely, positively have a bad switch and you've eliminated the possibility of some cosmic back feed through the solenoid wire (which I can't think of how that could happen anyway). |
