I have a 2015 2575 RWC with a volvo penta inboard. The ignition key switch is frozen. I have been looking for a replacement for weeks now. Bennington dealer sends me to Volvo dealer, volvo dealer sends me back to bennington dealer. I need help finding an OEM switch.

It's possible that neither Volvo nor Bennington know exactly what ignition switch was installed in your boat. You will likely need to have the module in-hand to see the part number (that may be a Sierra product). Then search Amazon or Ebay for that part or equivalent. Note that there are a multitude of modules, so be sure to get one that will fit your needs.

They pretty much generic.

Thank you, This switch is potted on the bottom with wires coming from within the potting/molded materials. The Man Down Kill Switch runs through this switch module. If I could get it apart I could ohm the wires with the switch positions and make a generic work. I am almost ready to cut it into 2 pieces and try from the inside out. If I knew the wiring code or colors I could make it work. the 2 red wires is where the Man Down Lanyard switch plugs in

Yeah, that housing makes this tough...didn't see any part numbers in you photos. Hope remove the housing so it's reusable. Is the switch mechanically locked up or does it appear to be corrosion? Good luck.
