Ford Inertia Fuel Cut Off Switch

A bit of information which may be of some help I hope. I sourced a Granada switch sometime ago and have been struggling to connect to it because of the spacing of the pins. I've just come back from our local scrapyard with the correct plug and this was fitted to an identical switch in an Escort. I think probably most injection Fords may well have the same switch. On the Escort it was located in the left hand side of the passenger's footwell so very easy to extract once you know where to look. The switch that i have is as shown in the attached (I hope) picture.

The one on R200 shape Rovers is much smaller, mechanicla and dead easy to wire..

Yes, but I'd already bought the switch and made the housing for it so I was committed. I'd never really considered that the plug would be an issue until it was too late. Anyway it's turned out alright in the end.

I'm running the switch through a relay to be on the safe side.
