Re: ignition lock
Something wired incorrectly, a short and/or bad IGN SW.

Re: ignition lock
Probably the easiest way to find out if the switch is bad internally, is to get your multi-meter, or just an ohmmeter. Disconnect the car battery (+) terminal post first. Then (with the key in the off position), touch the first probe to the battery terminal at the back of the ignition switch and the second probe to the coil terminal of the ignition switch. The needle on the ohmmeter should read maximum resistance. If the needle jumps to zero (which means no resistance), then most likely, the switch contacts are stuck. It could also mean that the switch is okay, but somewhere down the line, the ignition coil wire is shorted to the battery wire due to fault insulation on the two wires.

Possibly why the stater drive was ruined.

Re: ignition lock
Sight unseen, my first guess is the ignition key switch is worn out.

Re: ignition lock
Here is a YOU TUBE Video of a later MUSTANG IGN SW R&R. Both cars are similar (open to discussion-debate).

There's usually a small spring loaded pin that releases the key cylinder. Disconnect a battery cable first. The switch assembly comes out of the dash by unscrewing the chrome bezel. Note the small letters on the switch housing for each wire connection terminal. Use some masking tape to label the wires with that same letter before you remove them. The electrical part of the switch itself may be worn out internally, or the lock cylinder may be too worn to turn the switch correctly. A new switch may come without a key cylinder. You might be able to re-use yours, or if it has excessive wear it may be part of the *won't shut off* problem. Using NOS / Made in USA parts is worth the trouble to find them. The places that supply restoration parts for '55/'57 Thunderbird's sell the replacement ignition switch for just under $40 and the key cylinder for $10. A locksmith shop should be able to re-fit the tumblers of a new key cylinder to use your existing key. Given the number of years since new, it is also possible the key itself (and other key cylinders on the car) are also quite worn out. Here's a link to another recent Ignition Switch question that may(?) be helpful... https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showthread.php?t=236176 . Last edited by dmsfrr; 02-24-2018 at 06:27 PM. |

Re: ignition lock
Without being able to hold the switch myself I can't be 100%, but yes the wiring looks correct.
Here is a wiring diagram to compare... http://www.oldcarmanualproject.com/t...re5765-195.jpg |
