Ignition Switch with Key 7 terminals Compatible with Husqvarna Craftsman Deere John MTD Murray Riding Lawn Mower Replace 925-1741 175566 175442 GY20074 94762 163968 532175566

What It Is

This is a 7-terminal ignition switch with key, designed to replace the ignition assembly on riding lawn mowers and tractors. It controls power to the starter, ignition coil, and accessories, and is commonly used on Husqvarna, Craftsman, Deere, John Deere, MTD, and Murray models.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, verify your mower’s model number (not just brand) against the listed OEM cross-references: 925-1741, 175566, 175442, GY20074, 94762, 163968, and 532175566. The switch has 7 terminals in a specific blade configuration—count the terminals on your old switch to confirm match. Measure the mounting hole diameter (typically ~1.375 inches) and the stem length to ensure it fits your dash panel. Check if your mower uses a screw-on or nut-retained mounting style; this switch uses a nut. Do not rely on brand alone—some Craftsman or Deere models use different terminal layouts.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Priced at $9.99, this is a budget aftermarket part. It works for most users, but the plastic housing may feel less durable than OEM. The included keys are generic and may not match your existing key profile.
• Installation difficulty: Easy (1/5). Disconnect battery, remove old switch (note wire positions), plug in new switch using the same terminal order, and secure with the nut. No special tools needed.
• Common gotchas: Wire colors may not match your mower’s harness exactly—label wires before removal. Some mowers require a diode or resistor in the circuit; this switch lacks those, so verify your original switch had none. If your old switch had a different terminal count (e.g., 5 or 6), this won’t work.
• Warranty: No OEM warranty; returns are at seller’s discretion. Test immediately after install.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you need a cheap, quick replacement for a worn or broken ignition switch on a common riding mower brand, and you’ve confirmed the 7-terminal layout and mounting dimensions match. It’s not for you if your mower requires a specific OEM part for safety circuits (like lights or PTO interlock) or if you want a heavy-duty switch for commercial use.
