Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if my starter switch is failing?
Common signs of a failing ignition switch include difficulty turning the key, the engine not cranking when the key is in the "Start" position, intermittent power loss to accessories, or the engine failing to shut off when the key is turned to "Off."
What does "State Key Code When Ordering" mean?
This note typically applies when ordering from the original manufacturer to get a key matched to an existing set. As this is an aftermarket unit, it comes with its own unique set of two keys, and key matching is not available.
Can I use my old Volvo Penta keys with this new switch?
No. For security and proper operation, this aftermarket switch is supplied with a new lock cylinder and a unique pair of matching keys. Your original keys will not work with this switch.
Is this starter switch compatible with my engine if the model isn't listed?
While this switch fits a range of Volvo Penta applications, we can only guarantee compatibility for the models listed. Please verify the part number (3587071) and visual details against your original part before purchasing.
