How to Fix Car Ignition Switch Problems
If your car starts and runs, but the ignition switch won't switch over the spark plugs, it could be a number of reasons. Some are simple and inexpensive to repair, while others require specialized equipment and help of mechanics.
Lubricate the socket of the key first. You can use graphite powder or a silicon spray. Make sure that the ignition cylinder is free of no obstructions or loose springs.
Battery
It could be that your battery is dying if your vehicle won't start. This is a common problem that can be resolved by either charging your battery or a jump. If this doesn't fix the issue, it's possible that the ignition switch is bad. The switch is the one that supplies battery power to other electrical components, such as the starter motor and ignition coil. If the ignition switch is faulty it won't permit current to flow through and the engine won't start.
The battery is responsible for all the electrical energy you use in your vehicle. The battery is a black box with positive (+) and negatively (-) terminals at the top. The terminals could get corroded, preventing the battery from providing power to the rest the vehicle. Clean the battery's terminals by disconnection of the battery and using a wire brush to remove any corrosion. You can also apply baking soda as a solution to help clean the terminals.
Your car's battery could be nearing the end of its life and will require replacement. A new battery will supply the right voltage to your vehicle’s spark plugs. This is necessary for a properly functioning engine.
The ignition coil is responsible for converting low voltage from the battery into high voltage, which will then ignite the spark plugs in your car to start the engine. If the ignition coil is defective and is not capable of sparking the plugs, and your engine will not start. You can test the ignition coil by checking for a spark inside the engine or turning the key and seeing whether the engine is turning.
You may also need to replace the starter motor. If you hear a grating sound when you turn your ignition key, this means that the starter bearings are wearing out. This can be a costly repair so it's best to replace the starter motor early on if you notice any signs of wear and wear. The replacement of the starter motor is an easy process that involves replacing the bolts and a few components.
Alternator
The alternator is a device that charges your battery when your engine is running. It also powers your car's electrical components. If you suspect a problem with your alternator, you should first test the battery. This will help you determine if your alternator is causing the battery to run out or whether the battery is just old and should be replaced.
While the vehicle is idle, the alternator provides power to the dash light and radio. It also powers the windshield wipers, the power windows, electric steering, heated seats, and the power windows. You can use a voltmeter check your battery and the alternator for the proper voltage levels. If your battery is less than 6 volts, then it needs to be replaced or charged immediately. A low or dead batteries can also stop the starter from turning the engine over, and will require additional jumper cables to start your car.
Before you begin removing the Alternator, shut off the ignition and lock all doors. It is also important to disconnect the negative cable from the battery, and then put it away somewhere safe and put on the safety equipment. Check out a repair manual that is specific to your vehicle for directions on how to remove the alternator or any other components.
If your vehicle has a warning light wire, you can remove it from the back of the generator following taking off the belt. This wire will connect directly to an alternator terminal identified WL or IN. Some vehicles have an additional relay that performs this function. If the warning light doesn't blink, you may be able to identify a different issue.
The alternator is a vital part of your vehicle, and you should check it frequently to look for signs of problems. While you could perform some of the checks by yourself, you should bring your vehicle to Les Schwab for a no-cost inspection and expert advice. Our technicians will test for corrosion on your battery, battery posts (+ and -), fuses, relays and voltage output, cold starting amps, and more.
Starter Motor
The starter motor is an essential element of the ignition system. It turns the engine to allow air to be sucked in, which is needed to ignite the fuel. It is typical for the starter motor to be at fault when your car isn't turning over. There are a variety of troubleshooting techniques that can assist you in identifying and fixing the problem.
When you turn on the ignition of your vehicle, a switch on the starter is activated by an pinion gear that is fitted into grooves on the flywheel. The pinion gear then turns the flywheel, which in turn begins the engine. When you release the key, the pinion gear retracts and disengages from the flywheel to prevent damage.
There are many things that could cause problems with the starter motor, such as an electrical problem in the internal windings, mechanical issues (such as teeth no longer meshing with the pinion gear or flywheel) or a dead battery. A damaged starter motor could sound like a dead cell phone battery. It can make a clunk sound as it attempts to turn the engine.
If the starter motor isn't functioning, one of the first things a mechanic will examine is the condition of charge on the battery and its terminals. If the battery has corrosion or is not functioning properly, it will need to charged or replaced.
Depending on the degree of the problem, the mechanic may also test the solenoid on the starter using a multimeter. The solenoid, which is a large magnet switch, sends an energy surge from the thick batteries cables to the starter. The switch connects the battery cable to windings within the starter, which make the electric motor turn as well as it pulls the rod, which turns an engaging fork, which will then push the gear that pinions to automatically engage with the flywheel.
A jumper wire can be used to disable the lost ignition key. This is only an interim solution, and you should not try it unless certain of the procedure. You'll need to take care to connect your jumper wires to the battery terminals, and make sure that the switch is in the "Start position".
Ignition Switch
The ignition switch is the place where you insert your key into the car. This will enable electrical flow to your starter and start up the engine, but it's not immune from wear and tear as other car parts. The switch may also become stuck in its slot or even locked. It is important to check for issues regularly to identify the problem before the car stops working.
It could have been locked if your key is difficult to turn or becomes stuck in the ignition. This is a common problem for many vehicles and is because of a lack of lubrication. Using a graphite or silicone-based grease on the pin that releases the key could aid. Spray some lubricant into the ignition and then turn the key. If you're stuck you can try using a hacksaw or piler blade.
An issue with the ignition may cause other issues. The anti-theft feature could stop working or the starter motor may not turn on when you insert the key. This can also cause the secondary functions to stop working or lose power.
A malfunctioning ignition switch could also leave you with lots of wear and tear on other parts. For example, if you carry a bulky keychain or multiple items on your keychain, it could put strain on the ignition switch when you put it in and can accelerate the wear and tear on its internal components. Extreme temperature fluctuations can also affect the materials and lubricants in the ignition switch.
It's important to test the new ignition switch prior to assembling the other parts and the steering column. Make sure the replacement works and that your engine starts without issues. Also, make sure the new ignition switch is compatible with your vehicle's model and model. It might be worth it to hire a dealership to install the ignition switch for you if you aren't sure about your ability to do so. They will also test the replacement and install any other parts that require connecting or replaced.
