This Sea-Dog magneto-style switch drops right in with the classic Off-Ignition-Start layout plus a built-in push choke. Six screw terminals, a polypropylene housing that shrugs off spray, and two keys in the box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you've got an outboard with magneto ignition and the old key switch is worn out, cracked, or just won't turn clean anymore, this is the Sea-Dog replacement that drops right in. It's a magneto-style ignition switch with the classic Off-Ignition-Start layout plus a built-in choke, so you're running the whole starting sequence off one key.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere's how it works. Turn to Ignition to power up, turn to Start to crank, and on a cold morning you push the key in to choke the engine while it fires. Let off and the switch springs back to the run position. It's the same simple routine you already know, and there's nothing electronic to fail on you out there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe switch wires in through six screw terminals, which cover the magneto, ignition, start, and choke circuits. That's the full set you need for a magneto engine, so you're not adapting or splicing to make it fit the harness. The housing is polypropylene, so it shrugs off salt air, spray, and the damp that lives behind every console. The shaft is short, which suits a thinner dash panel where you don't have a lot of depth to work with behind the helm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo keys come in the package, so you've got a spare from day one. Toss one in the glovebox or hand it to whoever else runs the boat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA couple of honest notes. This is a magneto-style switch, meaning it grounds the magneto to shut the engine down. If your engine uses a battery-powered ignition instead, this isn't the right switch, and forcing it will leave you scratching your head at the ramp. When in doubt, check your engine's ignition type or send us the model and we'll tell you straight. And before you wire it in, snap a photo of your old switch's terminals. Matching the wires back one at a time is the surest way to get it right the first time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMagneto-style ignition switch with Off-Ignition-Start positions plus a push choke, so one key runs the whole starting sequence\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSix screw terminals wire the magneto, ignition, start, and choke circuits without splicing or adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePolypropylene housing shrugs off salt air, spray, and the damp behind a console\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShort mounting shaft suits thinner dash and console panels\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo keys included, so you've got a spare from day one\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDirect replacement for a worn or cracked magneto-style outboard key switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized Sea-Dog reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eWhat does 'magneto style' mean on this switch?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eIt's built for engines with magneto ignition.
