Frequently asked questions

What does the steering column ignition switch do?

The steering column ignition switch is the key-operated electrical switch that feeds the ignition and starter circuits through its key positions. This is a Lucas unit specified for petrol applications and mounts in the steering column. Fits Land Rover Series 3 and Defender petrol models.

Does this ignition switch fit diesel Land Rovers?

This ignition switch is specified for petrol applications. Diesel Series 3 and Defender models can use a different switch, so check your engine type and the existing part number before ordering the petrol version. Matching petrol-to-petrol avoids a wiring or function mismatch.

Can the ignition switch be replaced at home?

Replacing the steering column ignition switch is usually a DIY job with basic hand tools, working at the base of the steering column with the battery disconnected. Note the wiring positions before removing the old switch on your petrol Series 3 or Defender so the ignition and starter feeds reconnect correctly.
