Possible Ignition Switch problem


Recommended Posts

So,

 

Had to have the mobilizer removed from my Corrado VR6 recently and I had a friend remove it and put everything back to factory until I can buy a new alarm for the car, it's a 93' and as far as I know it didn't come with any factory immobilizer.

 

Two wires had been splicer from the ignition loom, which he has rejoined, however since doing this the sunroof/spoiler and a few other little bits and bats didn't seem to work, originally you would turn on the ignition, everything would come on for a second then go off, and you would need to swipe the fob and it would all come back on, but since removing this hasn't been the case.

 

So last night I was showing my girlfriend the Corrado and she was sat in the drivers seat and turned the ignition on... still nothing on the dash, but she was playing and pushed the key a little past the first point and between turning it over, low and behold everything electrical starts working, spoiler... sunroof... dash

 

So, this leads me to believe maybe the ignition switch is bad, and the immobilizer was doing the jump of this prior to it being removed, anyone else got any thoughts on this? I'm probably going to swap it out regardless because they appear to be a cheap part to replace

 

Ta to anyone who replys
