Yes, it's the dorman model #85935 universal starter switch

You can't simply do that. This is a sophisticated electrical circuit that is likely integrated with an immobilizer security system that cannot be bypassed.

Changing the ignition lock would have done nothing for the electrical circuit. Your problem may not even have anything to do with the ignition switch.

There is also an early and late design with a relay that is operated by the PCM.

Here are the diagrams but you need electrical knowledge to read them correctly.

Early production design



late design
