ignition problems? - Honda Prelude Forum

well, i think my ignition switch is fuxxored. can anyone else confirm by belief?

about 6 months ago my radio started randomly cutting off. this problem has grown into cutting off about avery 15 minutes or so while driving. a few days ago the car started actually cutting off when i was driving. my simple fix for this problem is that i turn the key a little bit and it just returns to normal. but this happens again.

help please!

Sounds like the switch. Change it, its like a $40 part at the dealer. Should take about 20 minutes to swap out

Had a similar problem on an Accord in the shop a few days ago. Seems that the primary ignition harness that connected to the key cylinder can wear out on the contacts. They are known to wear out over time. Probably about $40 - easy to replace yourself.
