:in the ignition switch. Vibrated itself into a position where it made contact or :the exposed wire wasn't shorting itself out and worked fine. Now it's back in a :position where it's shorting again. Probably need to check for continuity to the :ignition switch and check the switch itself which will be a bit of a pain. :-( ok thats kind of what i thought. now. how do i check those wire connections! im not too car savvy but i can follow directions. i need a write up on what to look for and how to get at it
