g60griff 0 Posted December 26, 2005 saw something a while back on here somewhere about a thing you can make out of some wire and connectors that you plug into the plug at the back of the ignition switch and it sort of hotwires the car. do a search and try and find a link that would be an idea then you would find out if its the switch or not.
