There is a little contact mounted on my ignition key cylinder. It is blue plastic with a single piece of metal that inserts into the cylinder. Part of the plastic broke and it will not stay in the hole. Does anyone know where I can get a new one?

Does the vehicle start? Or is this part of the PATS system? Does it chime constantly, or never? If chiming is the only problem, and it doesn't, you have a "chimed" life!
 






You can use a zip tie around the ignition tumbler to hold it in place
Or
You can find that little plastic bugger in any junk explorer or ranger, have any junk yards? Anyone parting one on your local craigslist?
