Ignition keeps turning won't turn on of off

Asked by Jaziel14 Feb 05, 2018 at 03:49 PM about the 1974 Oldsmobile Omega

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Ignition key keeps turning after taking steering
wheel off I found a small peace broken, it was to a
rod that's controlled when turning the key. Can I fix
it or do I need to replace the whole steering
column.

looks like the teeth of the rack that the spur gear on the end of the ignition switch moves back and forth as a a switch, something from 74 you could probably use a toggle switch and a push button mounted on the dash to power the coil and start the car
