First time poster, long time lurker. I finally picked up my '98 m1078 from GP and one of the first things I want to do is to do away with the push button start and integrate the start button as well as the toggle ignition to a traditional keyed ignition. I ordered an lmtv ignition switch from one of part suppliers and it comes with the traditional BATT, ACC, IGN, and STR. I have BATT and IGN hooked up and everything operates as it did with the toggle BATT switch.
The original start button has 2 wires going to it. I connected the wire with power to STR and left the other disconnected as was shown on a Youtube video of Abel. All I get is a click from the fuse panel. It doesn't crank, but if I take the power wire off and ground it with the IGN on, then the starter engages.
I'm starting to think its a faulty ignition switch as I've tried every combination. Batt and IGN are good, just cant get the starter going.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
