Hi All, I am kind of a nube to working on boats so I would appreciate any help or advice you guys can give me. I have a 89 Johnson 60HP VRO motor on my fairly new-to- me pontoon boat which until recently has run flawlessly. I started having a problem this year starting it, and figured it was the primer valve not responding to pushing in the key. So, I just flip the valve to manual start and back to run for a second, and the motor starts right up. A pain in the a$$, but it worked – for a few weeks. The other day, I went to start the boat and absolutely nothing when I turned the key. No crank, no nothing. After a few tries and several curses, it started working again. After, I checked the main fuse and everything looks clean and happy. Connections to the battery are all tight and the battery is good. So, I’m thinking that the ignition switch has gone to hell. I’m not sure how to remove the old one, and I don’t want to screw stuff up in the control box by guessing how it comes apart. Can any of you offer step by step directions on how to replace the actual switch itself? I don’t want to attempt it and have handles, springs and whatever else busted or fall into the drink and have to take what’s left of it to a mechanic in a bag! 
Thanks in advance for your help!
