Default Tilt wheel ignition buzzer

I have a 71 with tilt wheel. I see on ebay the key buzzer switch , part
# 26022717. Is this correct? I don't know, as it list for years 69-81 and I thought it changed about 76. Any ideas if this is correct or do I need to look elsewhere for the correct part. GM direct list it , but I don't know if it will fit.

My GM parts book shows 77-82 as P/N 7811092 and 69-78 as P/N 7804414. Confusing! I bought the fit-all one from ZIP and it fit my 71'. Your number might be a "service replacement".

I am afraid that you will have to look elsewhere. That switch 26022717is the key buzzer switch for a 1977 through 1982 (or later) T&T steering column and is still available through GM dealers. It is different from the earlier T&T column switches.

The key buzzer switch for the 1969 through 1976 T&T is very rare. The last that time I checked, Corvette Steering Service had NOS listed as S69. Dr. Rebuild had NOS listed as 2187411. And Steering Columns Galore Inc. had some used switches.

Hope that this helps,
Jim

It does. I knew DOC REBUILD had them and also the price was a lot higher. Now I know the reason why. Will place an order. Thanks.
