I am having some intermittent issues with my ignition switch. Sometimes, I have to turn the key off, then back on to get ignition so, I need to replace it. This one is not original to my bike. Anyone recognize it? Its a 3-position switch. Im thinking it may be a Sportster switch ?

 

Most likely the contacts have excessive carbon on them. Have you tried to take it apart and clean the contacts?

 

I havent removed it yet to see if it is servicable. I'll give it a shot. Thanks

 

its a stock harley ignition switch FX or XL series 90s a guess the round key type - i have not see that type available aftermarket with the round key but the flat key switch is available in china throwaway only

 

I removed it and it is sealed so, I cant get any cleaner inside of it. It is a Harley part with a number 9806 or 9086 engraved on it. The 6 and 9 looks the same so, Im not sure about the part number.

 

You might want to look at 71428-90B. It was used on a 1991 Dyna Glide Sturgis. It looks to have the round key. I guess a dealer could order one with a key matched to your bike so that your fork lock and ignition use the same key (that's if you have a fork lock & from the picture of your bike I guess you don't have saddlebag locks). It also looks like some of the switches have 2 wires and some have 3 wires. Maybe Off/On/Acc for the 3 wire?? Google 71428-90 for choices. Good luck.

 

Thank you for that part number! I found some aftermarket switches that look the same and use barrel keys for around $20.00 but, I'd rather have a factory switch if I can.

I'm guessing this is your right one, I have a 92 fxdc (which should be the same as the 91 sturgis} and mine is a 2 position switch, off or on.

 

Are you saying yours has 3 positions? Off-Ignition-Lights ?
