1) Make sure the forks are to the left and locked. If they are not locked, turn the forks left and then stick the screwdriver all the way to the bottom and turn it left while jiggling the bars on the left stop until the forks lock.
2) Look in the hole with a flashlight. You will see the switch plate half-way down the hole, this is what turns when you move the ignition switch to on, run and accessory. Make sure the tabs on the switch plate are lined up like in this photo:
If the tabs aren't lined up properly you will need to line them up using the screwdriver. Stick it in part-way until it contacts the switch plate. Line it up so the slots are lined up at 2 o'clock and 8 o'clock when looking down in the hole.
3) Insert the switch assembly. Place the spring on the shaft and insert the lock in with the lock pointed towards the "fork lock" position. Make sure the key is still in the keyhole and turned all the way to the left 60º. Refer to this photo:
4) If you've got it aligned properly, the lock will bottom out all the way in and you need to hold it in with your hand and turn the key to engage the locking tab that holds it in:
5) Now the switch should be in with the forks locked. Re-insert the key and unlock the forks like normal. Go for a ride!!!
Good Luck!!

Man I just went through the same thing spending hours on that ignition only to find out I had a wire unplugged or not plugged in all the way. I don't know how many times I took it out, played with it and put it back only to have nothing. It on occasion would look like it was 1/2 between starting but then nothing. I am now an expert on the ignition which is not what my plan was. But now it's done and LOOKING GOOOOOD.
