    Can't find Ignition Key warning switch

    I can't find a switch for a non tilt and telescoping column for a 69. I have searched all the vendors and had no luck.

    I have not pulled the column apart yet. The reason for my search is my buzzer buzzes if the key is in or out. I had to pull the wire from the relay on the fender well to get it to stop buzzing. Is the switch broken? Or will I find that it just needs cleaning when I pull the column apart?

    Thanks Joe

    Joe the switchs are made of plastic and break as they age, the part maybe had , Try corvette steering website. and I think most of the vendors make a repro switch.

      Here is one source for the '69-76 standard column key warning buzzer switch.

      http://www.corvettesteering.com/corvette%20parts.htm

      I am sure that there are other sources as well.

          Joe,
          While the switch is not difficult to find. There is a spring clip that holds the switch in the column. That spring clip is not easy to come by, so take
          care when you remove the old one not to lose it. Good Luck!
