The car would not stop running after the key was turned to off. I replaced the ignition switch and it would not turn over or start. The next day for some mysterious reason it did start and turn off properly. Three hours later it would not turnover or start. Do you have any suggestions ?


Thanks for your support

did you replace the actualy switch or just the lock cylinder? seems like switch itself is probably at fault or loose wiring.
