Ignition & Light Switch with Key Hole for Fordson Major Tractors – Standard Body Version

Description

There’s nothing worse than cranking your Major with a screwdriver or dealing with lights that only work when you hold the switch just right. This replacement ignition and light switch brings back that simple turn-key reliability you remember, complete with proper key security. If you’ve been leaving your tractor where anyone can fire it up, this switch puts you back in control.

What You’re Getting

• Combined ignition and light control in one solid switch – no more juggling separate controls
• Key hole included for security – keeps unauthorized folks from starting your tractor
• Heavy-duty contacts handle high starter current and multiple light circuits without hesitation
• Standard body design fits most Major tractors – narrow body models need a different part
• Multiple detent positions give you off, ignition only, or ignition with lights just like original

Built for Real Farm Work

Your Fordson Major is a proven workhorse that’s still earning its keep decades after it rolled off the line. Whether you’re brush hogging pastures, running a loader, or pulling implements around the farm, this switch handles the electrical demands without the intermittent problems that plague worn originals. These 45-50 HP tractors deserve reliable controls that work every single time.

Made to Last

Farm equipment switches take a beating from vibration, weather, and daily use. This one’s built with robust internal contacts that won’t pit or corrode like the old switch that’s been acting up. The key mechanism operates smoothly without the binding you get when moisture gets into cheap replacements. Quality construction means it’ll handle whatever your Major dishes out.

Installation Notes

Plan on about an hour for installation, mostly spent getting to the switch location and sorting out the wires. Take a photo before you disconnect anything – it’ll save headaches during reassembly. Clean all the wire terminals while you’re in there, and use a little dielectric grease to prevent future corrosion problems.
