New on ClubRX - Clean your ignition switch, fix no-start problems
 

Hey everyone -

Since the recent hacking incident with ClubRX, I felt like I really needed to do some new content :). I've been needing to clean my ignition switch for some time, so I did that this afternoon and documented it.

Basically, my car would take 3-4 "clicks" of the key to the Start position before the starter would actually do anything. Sometimes it was better than others, but it was pretty embarrassing. So far, so good - it's started up every time since then.

This is VERY easy to do, takes a half hour tops and you just need a little sandpaper, some cleaner, some dielectric grease, and basic tools.

Enjoy,
Dale

I have used your site many times and it made life a lot easier. Just wanted to say that it is VERY appreciated!!

I bought this tool to help me get those screws out:

An new fan. Back to reading. Thanks

Very helpful Dale, my FD has suffered from this problem for quite some now. Thanks very much :icon_tup:

Awesome write up. I can't wait to give it a try. Thanks!

Its stuff like this that makes me proud I can read. Now if I can only read the how to make babies manual I can be a winnar!

Down with Turkish hackers! Up with FD starters!

That tool ladies and gentlemen will give you more time to drink beer!!~~~
Without that tool first of all you won't have beer and second you won't get sleep!~~ cause you will be there... right on your RX-7 black or tan seats... for hours!!

Get that tool!!~~~

Thanks Dale

Damn....I wish I would have seen this before I brought that starter....it has to be that...after installing the used starter and cleaning all wires down there, I still got the click click.
