I converted to Dual electronic ignition 2years ago,

now am doing a complete dash replacment. Now use a

series of toggle switches for each of the two ignition

systems.  I wanted to use a standard aircraft ignition

switch but it works opposite of what is needed for

electronic ignition.    Is there an aircraft switch

manufactured that would work with the electronic

ignition?  Is there a modification I could make to a

standard switch that would work?  

thanks for any help.

Hello Guy, So you want to take this notoriously fickle switch,



(see this web page for 

example//http://www.avweb.com/news/columns/191792-1.html),



modify it, and put it into your electronic ignition circuits where a single 

point failure can render both of your electronic ignitions inoperative.



Why would you want to do that?

   Not all electronic ignitions use the same

   switching philosophies. I believe Lightspeed

   is designed to mimic magneto switching functions

   so as to seamlessly integrate with the classic

   off-l-r-both-start type mag switch. Also, the

   next greatest system (e-mags/p-mags) will also

   use this style of switch if you so choose.
