get a new ignition switch. NAPA carries them.....its common in that particular model.




you gave it away when you said you could hold the key in the start position and it runs, but in the run pos. there is no lights in the cluster.



new switch is about 125 (getting a junkyard or used on will only band aid it,.....you will have to do it again.) and takes a novice about an hour to install.


i will just say this: i have installed about ten of them in the last year.
