It may take a few moments for the oil light to come on, but the gen light 
should come on instantly. The only way this could happen would be if power 
were not getting to the switched circuits on the other side of the ignition 
switch.

It's possible that the switch was not quite in the right postion and this will 
neve happen again, but my guess is that the ignition switch is at fault and 
you should keep your eyes open for a cheap one. Buy it now while you have 
the luxury of looking for a bargain, rather than later when you have to pay 
whatever. There always seems to be someone selling new ones on ebay for 
$29.95. That seems high to me. What do you think?
