Default Electric Ignition Switch issue -95 Chevy Silverado

Hello, I own a 1995 Chevy Silverado 4x4 Single cab short bed truck. I love it! I've had it for almost 3 years now, has the 5.7 liter engine, with some off-road packages. I have been experiencing troubles trying to start it lately. And even beyond that, sometimes when I'm driving down the road the truck stalls on me. I have replaced the computer, and I'm still experiencing the same problems. I replaced the computer because that is what the code was reading. We took apart the steering wheel column, and found that the pink 'hot' wire was a bit loose going into the Ignition starter wire harness. I was wondering if the Ignition Switch Starter is what I need, or is there an 'Electrical Ignition Switch' that is different from the Ignition Switch starter. Which 1 do I need, and how hard is it to replace?

Thanks, Jason

My truck was doing this not to long ago. Turned out to be the wires going to the battery. I found out everytime my truck lost connection with the battery it took a while to reboot the system. It would turn off on me on the first couple red lights but after that it worked just fine. Once I took care of those wires never had a problem.
