Review on πŸ”‘ Johnson, Evinrude, OMC Ignition Key Switch & Safety Lanyard 5005801, 175974 - Reliable Performance and Enhanced Safety Solutions by Eddie Kittylovin

Revainrating 2 out of 5

No longevity, kind of bobo. Spring for OEM, buy once, cry once.

This key switch got me back on the water but only lasted about 5 months. It never felt very tight or definitive when turning the key, but it worked for a while. Now the contacts are loose and the engine only starts once or twice out of ten attempts. I can only assume it was built in China or something, so it's not surprising. Now I'm waiting for the arrival of the OEM device. Lesson learned.

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • There are some nuances
