Only had a quick look, I take it you mean the switch on the end of the barrel, it doesn't click at each point anymore.

Does the barrel actually provide the detents between switch positions? or is it the switch itself :-\

I would have the cowl off and have squint at the switch before condemning the lock barrel.
It's just the switch that provides the 'I', 'II', and 'START' positions.
No need to worry about immobilizer chips or new keys, just reattach/replace the black switch at the end of the ignition barrel...

Have removed the screw that holds the switch but can't get it to come off, I have removed the key/barrel. if I have to get a new barrel assembly it is held by the screws that the head break off, will I have to drill them out?

Do the pictures in these two guides help?

Ignition Switch and Connector Removal

Ignition lock re-condition

I don't know if the barrel has to be removed before the switch can be removed  :-\
