Ignition Switch Replacement

[Boxster33]

Yea, I tried moving steering wheel but no luck. I even put the old ignition switch back in and same issue. Can a weak battery cause the same symtoms? The dash doesn't light up only a red light on stereo blinks on and off.

Driving home fron the casino Saturday night (after the LIVE show!!) my wife said, "Why is the stereo blinking?". I watched it... three flashes.. two flashes... three flashes... then it stopped just as soon as it had started.

Hmmmmmmmm. Wonder if my ignition switch is going out?

May have to buy the part just in case. Thabnks for the heads-up!

Issue is resolved. I removed the ignition switch then pulled on steering wheel to unlock steering assembly and reinstalled switch. Works perfectly.
