Turning the key should send power exactly where it belongs, and the Standard Ignition Ignition Starter Switch US-117 is the Pickup switch built for that job on the 1972-1978 Toyota Pickup and the 1971 Toyota Corolla. It is a direct-fit replacement for these listed applications. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.
An ignition starter switch is the electrical side of the key system. As the key moves through its positions, the switch opens and closes the circuits that power the ignition system and engage the starter. If the original switch has worn out, this unit is designed to replace it.
Signs an ignition starter switch may need replacing include no crank when the key is turned to start, dash or accessory power that cuts out as the key moves, or an engine that stalls when the key is bumped. Other faults can cause these symptoms, so diagnose the circuit before replacing the switch.
