old hot start thread
I commented on the above thread. My issue was not HOT START, it was just START. Well I bought two $8 switches as a precaution. They were MEYLE so I thought they were made in Germany, but made in China is stamped on them, so I figured they might fail. My first one has died after only a few months. or at least I thought it died. I took the steering column apart and EVERY SINGLE time I use a screw driver in the switch recess to start the car, it works. The wires and the switch are just hanging under the dash and I take a standard screw driver, insert and turn with 100% success. When I install the switch and the key mechanism on the shaft and I get it to start once or twice then nothing. All 3 of the switches react this way. Anyone have any ideas about what might be happening. Clark |
