IGNITION PROBLEM Sign In

Please help, I have a 1993 Oldsmobile Bravada, the ignition worked wometimes and now not at all, It sometimes had a sweet spot where if the shifter was moved just so, it would start but now the SWEET spot is gone and it will NOT START AT ALL, is it a short in a wire or could it posibly be the ignition switch? Or some sort of RELAY or FUSE?

From what you describe,it sounds like it may be a faulty neutral safety switch.

It could be other things as well,based on what exactly is happening.
I assume it has battery power,just won't crank.
Not being there,i can only offer what it sounds like .
I would start by making sure the battery is ok,check all battery cable connections at the battery and starter.
Check for any fried fusible link wires at the starter.
Check to see if power is getting to the starter solenoid when the key is turned.
If so,starter may be the culprit.
Still could also be an ignition switch or wiring.
Based on what you describe about moving the selector and it would start,suggests neutral safety switch,unless coincidently something else failed.
