all you prelude buffs, i need sum help. if you can, swell. if you cant raTS!!
I RECENTLY RAN INTO A PROBLEM WITH A 94 SI AWS IGNOTION.

upon starting, the engin turns smoothly and and then shuts off as soon as i let go of the key(if i hold the key, it will stay on nicley). i removed steering lock and ignition switch and seperated the two and replaced the switch. but when i put it back on, it did the same **** as before.
where do you suppose the problem lies?

thanks.

Please dont mind me posting under my brothers screen name, for he is out. thanks

It's the electrical part of the ignition switch. I've had this problem before.

Which part of the ignition switch did you put in? On mine, one of the wires that was sodered on broke off. So, if you put a new electrical part of the ignition switch in and it's still not working, check the soder on it, as well.

Also, this topic has been covered in detail-that's how I was able to figure out what was wrong with the car. So, that being said, do a search for more info if you need it.

Okay, so I decided to not be lazy and get you the link... Having probs with the lude.. let's see how can

I checked the continuity of the ignition switch on position I, II, and III. I and II had none, so it has to be the ignition switch that is faulty. Thanks for the help and the link.
