I bought an ignition off Rx7doctor and got it in my car and when i was putting the electrical portion into the ignition lock i busted the back side off (black side) and screws flew everywhere

did I ruin my ignitions eletrical portion? What should I do to make my car work ugh!!!

 

take a picture im not sure what u mean

did u break the clickn part or one of the terminals on the ignitor

 

Josh, you are killing me!!!

If you lay off those roids you wouldnt have super human strength and rip things up! lol

 

Sounds like he's talking about the ignition switch?

 

oh i c now well its a case of hot wireing the car iv done the same thing and figured how to hot wire just crossing the right wires and making a conection

 

I put the new ignitioon on but it felt way to hard to turn the ey. so I lowered the steering column and removeed the cirular plug on the left side and upon reinsertion it blew up.


ugh. is there a way to fix this?


/treo 700p

 

yup.

 

without hotwiring? ill post some pictures today

 

How did you manage to break the back portion of the electrical switch?
I presume that you are talking about where all of the wires are attached to the back of the electrical portion of the ignition switch?

If this is the case that electrical portion of the ignition switch now needs to be replaced.

 

yea... how do I fix it

 

take a photo so we can tell u how to fix it

 

 

Those are easy to get from junkyard.

 

i agree with wacky that isnt repariable unless u have all the springs for it

 

So grab one from the junkyard and either solder or crimp the wires right?

 

no all those wires conected to the ignition unplug from the harness

 

On the back of the ignition there are the 2 wires that go into it and look like they're soldered on. Well I broke that too. My car still starts without it though. There is like a green and red wire and I dont know which goes on the front or the back.

Also what do those too?

THanks

 

Did someone try and steal your car? Then failed and stole your stereo? haha

 

they tried to steal my car and failed, yes. but my stereo was in the hatch area just sitting there along with my speakers and cd and were unmolested

 

that whole assy has 3-4 clips on the wire pigtail end, just replace the whole thing. if theres any chance you lost the slides or the springs there is no way to repair the one you have. what i assume happened was you pushed it on without lining up the slot with the metal tab that comes out of the lock cyl.

I replaced the part with 4 connectors that goes into the left side of the ignition assembly. But need to know what the 2 wires connected to the back of it go to/do

 

i have always wondered that, but never bothered to look it up. you mean the wires that go into the lock cyl assembly? on the opposite end from the electrical ign switch?
