You just had an ignition switch replaced in 2004 Saturn Ion and it's not starting again when it's really cold can you replace the switch myself and where is the switch and how do you do it?

This is an on-going problem with Saturn ignitions.....The switch apprently has some internal grease that prevents the switch from making contact and starting the car (especially when it is cold).....You can replace the switch, but I have a better idea.....Spend the money you would have spent on a new switch by installing a remote starter.....should cost you about $300.00 installed.

How do you replace an ignition switch in a 1998 Saturn SL2?
Is should not be that difficult. Pickup a service manual, I believe that the Saturn uses GM's Passlock Anti-theft system. If you are having problems with the ignition or the car starting, it is more than likely thie ignition cylinder lock. This is a common problem with GM vehicles. This also should not be all that difficult to replace. There is a bit more to it than replaceing the ignition cylinder lock you will have to reprogram the system to read the new key unless you have the new lock keyed to match the original key.

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.
