Hs anybody found a cross reference # for the starter lockout switch on the M813?? Ive searchd on here and found it mentioned as well as the NSN# 5930-22-692-9258, but have had no luck yet on the internet or parts books crossing it over or finding a NOS one.
Looking at the wiring diagram it looks like a normally open switch, but I will check tonight to be sure. Its functional just leaking oil.
Worse come to worse, Ill remove and see how much pressure it takes to open or close and find one close to that.

Checked into this some more today, Its a normally closed switch [grounded]. Untill oil pressure comes up and opens the ground. With it unplugged truck will not crank, but in an emergency you can just ground the wire and truck will crank and run normal, you just wont have starter lockout protection. i havent looked much for aftermarket pressure switch. big thing is i hate to change the wire end. Ive yet to find an orignal equipment one yet on line.
This really could be removed, wire grounded and oil port plugged i just hate to not make it original.
