Ignition switch woes

[Jpalatinus]

I have been having intermittent no crank issues which i had had been attributing to the starter solenoid. I would turn the key and nothing would happen and then open and shut the door and she would start right up. Anyway i wish i had gotten the old multimeter out before i changed the starter, and discovered my problem was my ignition switch. It was kinda zip tied to mainta9n contact with thr white read wire and the switch. Anyway i ordered a new ignition switch thinking it might be a pop in replacement, but my current ignition switch appears very different from what i received. I suspect i have a non stock switch and the reems of electrical used to make it fit in the ignition cylinder should have given it away. On my inspection of the workshop manual i am suspecting i should be able to order a new ignition switch actuator part number 116679 to connect the new switch to my cylinder. I cant really find a good picture of this part but i dont believe i have it. Will that part be my only missong link or are there other parts needed to make this work?677806778067780

That purple white wire was causing my problems as i went over a bump car cut out. Sanded crimped all no issues since.:)
