Engine Mechanical problem
1986 Honda Prelude Two Wheel Drive Manual

When I turn my key it will not stay in the on position. The only way the car keeps running is to hold it. What causes this and how can I repair it?
Thank you

You must replace the ignition assembly and either get it coded to your key, or get a new key.
