Remove key switch assembly

Post by Boz64 » Sat Jun 28, 2014 3:13 pm

I have a 1964 CA77E and need to remove the key switch assembly from the speedometer/headlight housing. I can't see the apparent way to go about this and would like some advice on how to proceed. Is there a special tool required? Thanks for your help!

You just have to remove the ring on the outside of the switch. You can try to find or make a C spanner or you can try gently tapping the ring undone with a piece of hardwood in one of the slots.
