[FWDLK] 1957 Dodge push button starter switch

[Bradley Werner <begrayme@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

 

   Another successful repair.

 

   I was able to remove the push button control module and cable quite easily. My initial fears were I would need to manually adjust the control cable if I unhooked it. When I checked the micro starter switch using the ohmmeter it checked out fine. So I put the module back in, after I bent the tang to push the button in just a little bit more. When I put the battery on and tried starting it was sporatic. Not reliable!! I ended up replacing the switch with an NOS I found on Ebay. I drilled it out and secured it with some small machine screws and nuts. So far so good. 

 

  Thanks again to all for your expert help. I'm a happy camper.

 

 Now, I'm going to work on a squeaky torsion bar.I think. It's quite annoying riding along in the convertible, squeak! squeak! squeak!. Any suggestions.

 

 Till next time,
