[QUOTE="Nosecone, post: 535729, member: 1076"] I have not had a problem with the ignition switch on my 06. However, I am with HaulinAshe on the possibility that road spuge is entering the switch through the weep hole due to the airflow pattern around the steering head. Soooo I put a diaper on my switch. Took a piece of an old black T shirt, doubled it over and brought it up and around the switch housing and zip-tied in place. You have to look hard to even notice it there. So now the switch breathes filtered air. Keeps the shit out not in. Don't know if it will help but can't hurt. It will be interesting to see if Yam's new switch has a different weep hole design.
