Series 3 cut out switch

crashbox · Jan 19, 2011

I pulled the cut out lever/switch on my ser3 diesel and it wouldn't go back in. It is fitted onto the ignition switch housing. I disconnected the cable leading to the pump and removed it. There is some sort of button in the hole where the pull lever/switch goes. It looks like it should go into the ignition mechanism but its not for moving. Any advice or have I baffled you?

Maybe you'd better get another ignition switch, one without the lever.

It's the steering lock pin. When you puill the lever, and lock the wheel, it stops some pikey pushing the pull-knob back in. Turn yer ign key to position 2 and watch the pin magically dissapear...

....hopefully...

Thanks for the replies, Yes I think it is the locking pin, unfortunately its bent now and wont go back in. G-man, if you have one I will purchase same from you, thanks.

My Diesel's fitted with a petrol ignition switch so the cut out springs right back in.

Anyone know where I could get a proper diesel one?

right i will have to give it a clean up and free it off a bit but i have found it! it was under a pile of TD parts lol, i can't find the clamp part that holds it to the column so you will need one of them(and new security bolts) but they are only a couple of quid (available separate from lrseries i think) also one of the bolts is snapped off in the thread so i will remove that (drill and easy out time)
