Electrical problem
1993 Acura Vigor 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

Hi.
I have a 1993 Acura Vigor LS with a 5 cylinder 2.5 Lt Engine.
A couple days ago, I started it and when my key turned back after it started, the engine died. Now when my key turns back the car dies. I have checked that my fuel bar is sending gas, there are no leaks. My fuses are all good, so the fuel pump shouldnt be stoping.
My question is, how can i tell what exactly i need to replace. I suspect its my ignition switch, however I could be wrong.
Any help or info is great.
Thanks.

Hi ProB2010,

Yes, I believe the ignition switch is bad.

When the key is released and the engine stalls, if the dash indicators lights do not come on, that would mean the ignition switch is bad.
