Knowledge of Ignition Switch

The ignition switch of the system (which usually requires a key) allows the key circuit of the ignition coil to be turned on or off freely and also satisfies the objective conditions for the other circuits. The ignition switch, commonly known as the master switch, master switch, or master key, is the master gate that regulates the entire vehicle circuit system. It has two types of plug-in and knob types.

One Touch Start

The one-touch start button or knob can only be activated by receiving the smart key, and the sensing distance is mostly around 50 cm. In most cases, the smart key is also available with what we usually call a serrated or notched key. Its function is to avoid starting by mechanical start when the one-touch start function is disabled. Most of the cars with a one-touch start function do not need to insert the key, but basically, they have a place to insert the key (the function is to avoid starting by key when the one-touch start function is disabled).

Start Method

After inserting the key into the ignition switch, stay in each gear for about 1 or 2 seconds. At this point, you can hear the sound of the electrical equipment powering up and then go to the next gear. Some cars can go directly to the ON position, then wait for all aspects of the appliance to start up in all directions for about 6-7 seconds, then turn the key to START and fire the car directly.

Solution for Bad Ignition Switch

The ignition switch of the system (which usually requires a key) allows the key circuit of the ignition coil to be turned on or off freely and also satisfies the objective conditions for the other circuits. The ignition switch, commonly known as the master switch, master switch, or master key, is the master gate that regulates the entire vehicle circuit system. It is available in both plug-in and knob types. If your ignition switch is damaged, you have the option of purchasing a new one for replacement. The cost of ignition switch replacement is far less than the cost of repair.

What Is The Meaning of The Ignition Switch Gear？

The ignition switch is a vital switch in the equipment circuit as the regulating hub of each circuit branch. It allows the ignition coil to be turned on or off freely. In most cases, the device basically has four gears, namely LOCK, ACC, on, and START.

1. Start ST or Start gear, start the device, start the engine, start the fuel consumption, adjust the air to start cooling, and it will automatically return to the normal state after starting, i.e. on gear.
2. Turn on the ignition meter indication ON or IG, in addition to the starter, other basic equipment is basically on, you can unlock the steering wheel to use the empty adjustment, but the empty adjustment has no cooling effect. Because at this time the compressor has not started, only the blower is rotating, so it is natural wind rather than cold air.
3. An accessory block ACC is used to power up the whole car. Radio, lights, etc. Basic can be used normally, but can not use the empty adjustment.
4. Locking steering wheel shaft. If the car key is placed in this gear, equivalent to locking the steering wheel, the steering wheel can not move too much.

What Are The Symptoms of A Broken Ignition Switch?

The shift we often refer to is the fourth gear mentioned above because the ignition switch regulates the opening and closing of the ignition coil. If the ignition switch is faulty, then the device will not start properly. The most direct symptom is that the ignition does not start, the ignition does not go out, or the ignition is off for unknown reasons, and even the key adjustment circuit basically does not work properly.
