Post PD EFI Ignition Switch
Really hoping someone can help me out here... I managed to break my ignition switch on my prodrive 37 EFI... I'd like to go hunting for the season opener Saturday but the only way that is happening is if I can find a part local. Does anyone happen to know the part number or a suitable replacement that I could find at a local boat dealer? Any and all help is appreciated!

Any auto parts store should have a key switch to fit.

The plastic tabs that hold the front to the back broke and so it won't stay connected tight and the switch doesn't have the 3 defined positions... took it apart to see what was wrong when it went back in it didn't work at all

if u can't find one local, get one overnighted from pd.

it's just a generic switch, autozone should have one that will work.

They are a Sierra brand, But a mercury outboard shop should get them aswell. If you are in LA you will get it next day anyways from Pro Drive.

There is nothing special about the key switch. You can put another "bump" switch like the clutch engagement black button switch to start the engine. All the key switch is doing is sending power to the starter solenoid to crank the engine. if you can fine one, do that. now the key switch also offers "key on or power on when clicked to the ON position. But that can easily be fixed to a simple OFF/ON switch. Like you power battery switches that kill all power from the battery.

Thanks y'all... I did see that other thread but wasn't sure if there was a difference on the new engines... got the part ordered and hopefully I'll get it back up Friday night in time to head out... electrical isn't my strong suit... thanks for all the help
