    Bad ignition switch 2005 Etec with safety lanyard

    The switch won't pull out so the safety lanyard can be attached. I was thinking of spraying some silicone lube on it to see if that helps. Is this a known problem?

    Try pushing in with the key when reinstalling the lanyard! The way the kill switch works is when the lanyard is pulled the spring forces the key out and to the off position.

    Yes, I realized that after I got home and looked at it last night. Thanks.
