Thread: push button starter

Tweet

the ? is have have you ever seen a push starter button on a 1997 s10 pick up. you just might, my ign. switch went out today and a new one is 159.00. for what??? don't even get a new lock and key. i'm gonna put it where you can't see it and tell everybody its to keep it from being stolen.

Use a momentary on ,off switch and label it self detruct or ejection seat!! or security arming device

i can do that

Ever since my electric fan locked up and cooked my ignition switch in the Jeep, I have installed two new relays. One for the electric fan, and one for the toggle switch I am using for the ignition. I actually like it, because it would take a thief a few minutes to figure out why the electric pump and starter aren't working.

I am still using the old ignition switch to crank the starter, but the toggle works the ignition to the coil, so it takes a few minutes to get everything coordinated. Plus, I don't feel like tearing the column apart to change out the ignition switch.

i might want to sell it one day, and that really would hurt the value, its just makes me mad about that ever thing cost. its a tilt that came out of a 1985 blazer, but all of them was about the same price,

Mike: Then how about the u pick um yards? When I got the Blazer rear end a few weeks ago, there were tons of S10's Jimmys, and Blazers there. Would one of these work?

i'll call in the morning, but most of the time they will not take a sw. out of a good column and a used column is about 150.00. i'll do something,

i wish. no mine is put of a 1995 blazer, tilt, air bag. its 3 or 4 dif. ones.

Mike
Isn't it just a switch on the column??

I don't know where the air bag sw. is on yours, but on my 97 jeep its out front in the grill area.
If its that much $$$$ I'm with Denny rewire it whos going to know but you.

YEP I'd say its rewire time

there is nothing wrong with my air bags. if it has air bags its a dif. ign. sw. its 4 dif. sws. that can fit that truck.

I needed a starter button one time & ended up using a big red button(1")that came off a Injection Mold or Milling machine..It IS unique & I think I paid $5 for it.
