Default 2000 FXDS Intermitten Ignition

Hey everyone,

I just picked up a beautiful 2000 FXDS.
The only issue I am having at the moment is that the ignition is intermittent.
I can rotate the key and the gauges will light up, but I have to wiggle the key and sometimes push it inward to get the dash lights to come on so I can start it.

I have posted a picture of what type of ignition I have.

Is there any way to fix this or do I need to order a new ignition?

Thanks! and happy to be back on a dyna!
Oh and I will post pictures of the bike tomorrow after she has had a bath.

Just get a new ignition switch and be done with it. I’d hate to get stranded because of it.
