Yes, the ignition switch must be in the ignition position -not- the accessory position.
Ur life suck that why
It is false that the stat ignition switch position only activates the starter motor.
the battery will run down
you need to be more specific. i am going to assume you want to know in what position is the ignition switch in lock. usually it is 2 positions back from "run" but it is in whichever position the key comes out of the ignition.
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position. Do notstart the engine.2. Fully depress the accelerator pedal, slowly, three timeswithin 10 seconds.3. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF/LOCK position.1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position. Do notstart the engine.2. Fully depress the accelerator pedal, slowly, three timeswithin 10 seconds.3. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF/LOCK position.
To remove the ignition switch in a 1981 Corvette, insert the key into the ignition while leaving it in the "off" position. Insert a straightened paper clip next to the key, turn the key to the "Acc" position, pull the key and clip out together, and place the coil down.
This may sound ridiculous... but force the the ignition switch until the detent "breaks" and you can turn the ignition switch without the key. The risk here is that you could possibly break the assembly that the ignition switch inserts into. If you can get the switch to rotate from the lock position one position clockwise, then you can release the switch from underneath the steering column and pull the switch out. The alternative is to have a locksmith get the ignition switch to rotate one position clockwise and then you can remove the switch and replace it with a new one from any auto parts store.
The ignition switch is usually mounted to the steering column and is operated by a linkage rod. NOTEOn column-mounted ignition switches, don't confuse the switch with the lock cylinder and keys. The ignition switch is not normally visible. On some vehicles, the steering column support has to be removed and the column lowered to find the ignition switch. On others, the switch is accessible under the dash.The ignition switch is operated by the key switch. Courtesy of Ford Motor Company. To replace the switch: * Remove the ignition switch wiring harness. * Unbolt it from its position. * Bolt the new switch into position. * Attach the witing harness.
