Need an ignition lock or glow start switch for your tractor or construction machine? Find our product range below. Refer to the wiring diagram to determine how to connect the switch
A reliable ignition or starter switch is important for safely and efficiently starting and stopping your machine. At Techniek Totaal, we offer a wide range of ignition switches and starter switches for tractors, agricultural machines, construction equipment, and forklifts.
We supply standard ignition switches with 3 or 4 positions and key, often including one or two spare keys. We also offer pull switches, which must be pulled out to start the engine. Another common option is the glow-start switch – named for its function: first preheating, then starting the engine.
Planning to replace or install an ignition switch? Always consult the wiring diagram of your machine. This diagram shows exactly where the electrical connections should go, helping you avoid incorrect installations or malfunctions.
Our switches fit a wide range of machines, both old and new. We stock well-known brands such as Granit Parts, Kramp Varsseveld, Cobo, and Bosch – known for quality and durability.

A worn or faulty ignition switch can lead to starting issues or unsafe situations. Replacing it in time ensures:
Your machine starts smoothly and without hiccups.
You avoid damage to wiring or starter motor.
You improve safety in daily use.
You regain trust in your equipment – even under heavy use.
Always disconnect the power before installation to prevent short circuits. Make sure the switch is mounted securely and cannot shift while in use. Not sure about the wiring? Check the diagram or ask for help.
Are ignition switches universal?
Not always. Check the number of positions, voltage (12V or 24V), and connector type.
What is the difference between a glow-start switch and a standard ignition switch?
A glow-start switch includes an extra position to preheat the engine – useful for diesel engines in colder climates.
Do spare keys come included?
Yes, most ignition switches come with one or two spare keys.
