Hey guys, I want to hook up a pus button start, reason is I'm having trouble sometimes with my ignition not working, so can someone help me with what I have to do? what wires I have to cut or use? is there a wiring diagram? and what is a nice start button, any help would be great,

 

I suggest fixing the "sometimes ignition trouble" first. That way any issues with the push button conversion are known to be issues with the push button... not maybe something else.

The actual electrical ignition switch that the key activates is on the top of the steering column, under the dash. Remove the hush panel, the dash trim below the column, then the two nuts holding the column up. The switch position can be adjusted, so it could be as simple as that.

What are your sometimes ignition problem symptoms? Cranking? firing? Only when hot? Only when cold? After its been sitting for a week? Is it a weak battery? A weak starter?

 

hey mojoe, thanks for the reply! it only does it every now a then, don't matter if its cold or hot, just happens sometimes when I crank it there's nothing, but I have power to everything else, and if I keep picking with it, it will crank fine, what are your thoughts?

 

Sounds like it needs a starter.

Check for 12V at the solenoid when trying to crank it but it doesn't. If it's there, you need a starter.

Very common wear-out defect with the old Delco direct-drive Stone Age POS starter.

The ABSOLUTE LAST THING your car needs from you, is you hacking on its wiring.

 

It's a brand new starter, I really think it's something to do with the ignition switch on the column, that's why I would like to have the pus button start
