Re: Car is on as soon as battery is connected, with the key

I'm gonna guess... physically broken switch out of phase with lock cylinder.

DING DING DING

I removed the switch and tested its positions with a multimeter according to the shop manual and it was definitely not switching to the correct contacts. I guess I'll have to replace that. Also, the wires ...

Re: Car is on as soon as battery is connected, with the key

Holy cow, calm down guys!

I haven't had a chance to look at it yet. We'll see if I muster the energy to do it tonight.

Re: Car is on as soon as battery is connected, with the key

Thanks for the advice guys, I'll try that stuff out later tonight.

A little more info, this was Vanished's car, I talked to him last night and apparently, the acc. position on the ignition doesn't even work anyway. It's starting to sound a bit like a bad ignition switch to me.

I've been somewhat ...

Car is on as soon as battery is connected, with the key out

Hey guys, LONG time no see. I've got another mx-3 project to work on. Vanished's old car actually. A 93 SE, with ZE swap.

Anywho, pretty weird problem. I thought I must know everything about these cars by now, but I guess not.

All the dash lights come on, and lots of relays under the hood click as ...

Sorry, I don't mean to be a pain in the a--. I probably should have made ...

Re: FS - 93 KLZE GS Special Edition Part Out *lots of goodie

Sorry to hear about the car.

Are the strut mounts, front and rear, in good shape? If they are newer and no cracks, I may be interested in them. Also, the seatbelts and bolts.

Price shipped to NS, B0K1S0.

Yep, definitely a bit of a piss-off. Luckily I have a couple other projects to keep me ...

FS - 93 KLZE GS Special Edition Part Out *lots of goodies*

Welp, some drunk totaled off my mx-3 while it was parked beside my house, so now I'm probably parting it out. If I get enough interest here (or in at least ONE of the big items). I'll buy it back, I should have access to it next week.

This is a complete car, so if you need something specific post ...

Re: Pedal pressurizes? Car stops in the middle of the road.

Toping off your brake fluid shouldn't effect anything. especially if its only at minumum. The e brake is actuated by a cable specifically so that it is kept seperate from the hydraulic system so that you can use it if something fails. I've never heard of this problem before and it makes absolutely ...

Re: Overboosting?

Air/fuel is a MUST for any custom boosted system IMHO. You could be destroying your engine without even knowing it. Just don't waste any money on a narrow band sensor, they give you a nice light show but don't actually tell you anything useable. You could be running way lean and it'll still read ...

I would! But I don't have a facebook :P

What does your car look like? Maybe I've seen you around town. I noticed another modified black mx-3 on Faithful today on my way to work. Never seen him before, could it be you?
