Thread: Ignition

hey, okay this is the 3rd time my ignition switch just shut down my whole car for 4 hours, no power no nothing. and i can take my key out while its in drive, so is the issue the whole harness fir the switch? and now there the security signal blinking in my dash. i don't know how to turn it off. any help?

The ignition switch is attached to a harness. Buy it. Problem solved

Actually dude with that flashing security light, it might be your bcm. What symptoms does your car exibit?

i already replaced the pcm, the icm and now i hope not this, but everything is fine except the weird ignition switch,and if i buy a new one how do i get one with a key that gose with it?

Ignition switch and cylinder and keys are different things. You just replace your ignition switch, you keep the same cylinder and keys and reuse them.

note, i said bcm not pcm.
Usually when your ignition switch is going out your; climate control only works on max, your headlights will turn off when clim control is on, weird relay clicking sounds inside dash, Dic flickers or goes out all together.

Your car wont start for hours and has a security light and thats it from what youve told us. It could be the ign switch But i think the bcm is a greater possibility.

this sounds expensive

so if the keys still getting stuck when i get the bcm then i should changed the ingition switch?

bcm is expensive for a dealer to do and you need a case relearn. $800.

The ignition switch might be where your key issue is stemming from.

If it were me I would change the ign switch regardless because they are problematic on our cars. if that doesnt take care of it go the bcm route.
The parts by themselves are cheap.

man thats alot of money. i tried getting the ignition switch out but the delphi pass key thing is in the way of everything, idk how to get it out its in betweek the igniton switch and the roller and tumbler were the key goes in

anyone

can someone please answere, were the bcm located? the trunk or under the dash
