IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Always confirm the correct OEM part number, machine model, and ignition switch type before ordering, as dashboard layouts and switch configurations may vary between Thwaites models and production years. A damaged, worn, or missing index plate can make ignition positions difficult to identify, potentially leading to incorrect operation or confusion during engine starting procedures. When replacing the index plate, it is advisable to inspect the ignition switch, key assembly, dashboard panel, and associated electrical connections for signs of wear or damage to ensure reliable machine operation and clear operator control identification.
