Re: push button starter question
what i do when i move cars in a junk yard with no keys is get a breaker bar and put it through the spokes a turn it over as hard as i can to break the lock rod.
if you want the wheeel to be locked i don't know what to do

Re: push button starter question
Are we teaching people how to steal trucks now? I have to ask the same question, Why the push button?
What are you working on? Are you having trouble with the gear shifter, or with turning the ignition lock cylinder?

Re: push button starter question
I would say that this is a column problem totally unrelated to the starter. If the shifter won't work with the key in the "run" position, it doesn't matter how the engine starts.

Re: push button starter question
my wording may have came across like i was getting pissy about it or something.i was just wondering like longhair what was his intention? is he trying to get around fixing some problem he doesn't know how to fix.i guess i don't get what he's trying to accomplish.
