If you mean the ignition system, Thankfully in all of GM's infinite wisdom, even though your car is only a '92, you have a distributorless ignition system. Follow your spark plugs to your coil packs, unbolt the old ones, and bolt on the new ones.

If referring to the ignition switch, you need to pull off the center of the steering wheel, remove the steering wheel, take the cover off of the steering column, remove the combination switch, then unbolt the ignition switch and reverse the steps.

NOTE IF YOU HAVE AIRBAGS USE CAUTION!! If you can afford it, take it to a dealership, airbags explode and get very hot when they do. So please make sure you follow this procedure: align the steering wheel to the " straight ahead" position, remove the SIR fuse from the fuse block, then the CPA (connection position assurance) device form the driver's side airbag, then the 2 way SIR yellow pigtail at the base of the steering column. Then remove the dash pad by removing the screw covers, then the screws, then lit UP on the rear of the dash pad, then lift up on the outer corners and pull back in it, then remove the insulator pad, then remove the cpa device and then the pigtail connector from the air bag module. Then remove the negative battery cable, and follow the above procedure

Why does the Saturn Ion witch stay in the on position?

Some Saturns have a problem with their ignition system. It just freezes up for no reason. You have to replace the ignition cylinder, and probably the ignition switch, too. I have an '06 Ion that just did that a couple weeks ago. I took it to a mechanic, and he had to call Saturn to find out what was wrong with it. They told him to replace the whole steering wheel column, but I found out later that I probably could have just done the ignition switch and cylinder. You have to buy the parts from Saturn, and get the ignition cylinder keyed by a locskmith.

"Ignition" is a system, of which the coils, spark plugs, wires and other components are a parts of. You need to be more specific with your question.
