I replaced my ignition switch over the weekend and it fixed the problem I was having with the coolant warning light sometimes not going out after starting the engine. Apparently there was enough of a voltage drop in the +12V coming out of the switch (the two black wires) that the coolant warning circuit was malfunctioning. The moral of this posting is a worn out ignition switch can cause problems other than starting problems. Replacing the ignition switch is a cheap (about $8.50 from Camelback) and relatively easy (about an hour or so) fix. Mark McCulley
