Check the fuse.
Have you checked If copper plate main fusible link in underhood ok ? Defective ignition switch is another posibility.
I had a similar problem on a Ford truck and it turned out to be the ignition switch. The truck would start just fine but when I released the ignition key the truck would die. I replaced the switch and problem was gone.
To bypass the ignition switch on a 1994 Chevy Astro, simply attach a wire to the ignition switch where it makes contact after the key is turned on. Run the wire to the push button and install at the lower part of the ignition switch to send power to the starter. Ê
You can remove the 2000 Chevrolet Astro Van the ignition switch cylinder by removing the retaining ring. The retaining ring will need to be turned to the left. The ignition switch cylinder will slide out.
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.
Perhaps a bad ignition switch
Defective ignition switch, or bad starter.
Faulty ignition switch.
It is probably caused by the ignition switch internals shifting (I had a similar problem before) and it turned out to be the ignition switch)
The motor that raises and lowers the antenna is controlled by a wire which is connected to the power switch in the stock radio. The wire from the antenna itself has nothing to do with raising and lowering the antenna. Touch the wires that were connected to the stock radio to a hot wire and see if the antenna starts to move. If if does, hook that wire to the wire from the new radio which is supposed to control the antenna motor. If there is no such wire, connect the antenna motor wire to the Accessory circut. The antenna will go up whenever the key is turned on. Or, you can get fancy and install a switch for it.
The actual problem is the starter continues to turn after key is turned off and pulled out of ignition.
Probably ignition switch. Have it checked out.
