The switch in your photo is not an original Vento ignition switch.
The original switches are not very good and not really repairable, as the metal body is crimped over the plastic innards.
I found that it would intermittently cut the ignition whilst going along, which was a bit of a pain.
I have got a few of those switches, some even with keys, if you are interested, although I am in the UK.
I think I substituted a Lucas switch from a Triumph Bonneville on my own Vento and it works much better than the old one.
It is a simple two position switch -OFF/ON
