FlyingMonkey Posted September 29, 2021 Report Share Posted September 29, 2021 I realized the other day my starter switch is getting old. How? I tugged on the key with the engine running and it came right out, the same as if the engine was off. It stays locked in place in the mag 1 or mag 2 position, but at mag 1+2 it comes right out if you pull it out. Not a safety of flight issue or anything, but it's probably time to start think about replacing it. Anybody know a source for it, and how much of a hassle it is to replace?

cdarza Posted September 30, 2021 Report Share Posted September 30, 2021 This happens to mine also - but it was happening when it was still new 12 years ago Although, i have the opposite problem. With age, its not as easy to remove the key anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
