Now wait a minute... I see Go Westy has the Piezo Electric "Switch" (push button part) - I thought that the part that would need replaced would be the "Igniter wire" that actually goes into the "combustion chamber", but thinking about it, I suppose that is just a wire and piece of metal to allow the charge to create a spark. So I am just getting a weak charge from the "switch" part - does that make sense? TIA Cheers, Paul. 1986 Syncro Westy - Hummingbird On Sun, Jul 13, 2008 at 6:21 PM, Kim Brennan <kimbrennan@mac.com> wrote: > Last time I had to get one I found out that you can't get it from "normal" > Dometic suppliers.
