What Is an Ignition Switch?
The ignition switch is the part of your car that starts the electrical systems. When you turn your key or press the start button, the ignition switch sends power to the starter and the engine. Without it working correctly, your car either won’t start or may stall while driving.
There are a few key positions in most ignition switches:
- Off: No power goes to the vehicle’s systems.
- Accessory: Powers things like the radio or power windows.
- On/Run: Powers the dashboard and all electrical systems.
- Start: Sends power to the starter motor and turns on the engine.
If any of these positions stop working, it could mean trouble for your ignition switch.
