Please help I’m Stuck It’s been 5 months

To change your ignition switch you will have to take apart the steering column to get to it. I am not 100% sure with a 73 A body but I am pretty sure the switch comes with the wires that run down through it and have a connector on the end that then plugs into the main harness.

So to replace the switch what you have to do is;

1. remove the steering wheel
2. remove the key cylinder
3. remove the screws holding the switch
4. pull the switch out of the steering column (you can basically cut the wires and pull the ignition switch out the top and the wires out the bottom
5. install the new switch (this is where the fun begins, you have to fish the connector down through the column which can be a pain, some people have cut the wires above the connector and then reconnected them after the wires are routed through the column but this really is not a great way to do it, however if you can solder and heat shrink it can be done)
6. reinstall the key cylinder

This is the reason that there is a push button, when the switch went out, someone put the button in bc changing the switch is a pain in the butt
