ignition switch

Post by drenthe »

Sure this has been posted, but not finding it. Have to hold the ignition key all the way on or car will die. One of the wires got pulled off and when I replaced it, may have put in the wrong terminal, heard a small pop from somewhere. Able to get the wire back to where it did work and now I get nothing. Checked all fuses, all good. Could have I burned out the ignition? Not sure what to check next, thanks for any help.

There are more fuses under the dash in single fuse containers in addition to the fuse box. It may take some searching to find the correct one.
