Dennis,
The ignition switch can be replaced very easily. Just remove the streering
column cover, you will see the switch location from the wires. on the bottom
of the switch is a small set screw, remove this. The switch will slide out
easily at this point. Unplug the switch connection from the main harness.
Buy a new switch and reverse the above directions.
