1929 Model A Ford popout ignition switch I have a 1929 popout switch. When I bought it the head was seperated from the cable. Can anyone tell me the correct length for a 1929 cable? Im going to use it on a 1929 pickup. The key wont turn (maybe it's the wrong key I don't know I bought it with two keys one is a repop blank key so I will take it to a locksmith and have him check the numbers to see if it's the correct key or not. My question is I want to go through it so I know it will be dependable. Is there any place I can go to find "how to restore it" info? Thank you, Bob :)

Re: 1929 Model A Ford popout ignition switch A & L Parts have the 28-29 cable that plugs into the 28-29 switch; this would save you a lot of problems, providing you can get keys and make the pop out switch work properly.

Outside cable (not including inner cable ends) is 26-1/4 long
When installing the cable end drill a little hole in the popout end housing end tap it and install Allen screw to keep cable from falling out and disconnecting the power. |
Re: 1929 Model A Ford popout ignition switch A 29 is very easy to restore. Take the head apart and check the insulators. You should replace the wire in the cable. That's all there is to it.

This is a 28-9 original popout I bought at a swap meet, but it came with a 30-1 key that happens to open it. |

Re: 1929 Model A Ford popout ignition switch On 28-29 and early 30 you (do not) need a key to take it apart if you look at Tom`s picture there is a Botton head set screw on the side take it out and the tumbler will come out with the lock ring, sometimes they can be a little sticky so hold it in one hand and with the other hand pop it in and let popout it will knock the ring loose. on the 28-29 cable Bratton part #16370 30 with a oval speedo it used the same head but the cable is longer,
