Jeff, I checked my ignition switch.  From the vertical, "12 o'clock", off
position; one click counter clockwise would appear to be the accessory
position.   I say, appear because my radio doesn't work and I have no other
accessories to test it and didn't have time to test it other wise.  The oil,
gen lights did not come on in that position, but they do in the "on"
position (one click clockwise from "off").  It switches to the accessory
position as easily as it does to the "on" position.
