[QUOTE="RockHopper, post: 4082426, member: 49099"] My ignition switch has died on me, and my car is currently stranded. The diagram for by-passing seems simple enough that I'm gonna have a go at it after watching some vids on YouTube. If somebody is knowledgeable enough to double check my logic circuit, I'd really appreciate it. I've got 14g wire, a 20amp inline fuse, testing clips, and a "starter" push button 20amp temp switch. As I understand the way this works, there is power coming off the positive terminal on the battery, going out to the starter. Then the ignition wire goes out to the ignition, where the circuit is completed when you turn the key to start. So. Correct me if I'm wrong here. All I have to do is run positive from battery to switch, and then on to the ignition wire coming off the starter. Then ground out the other terminal on the switch...yeah? That'll close the circuit and juice the starter into kicking over, right? [/QUOTE]
