Group,
My BJ8 ignition key is getting picky. It turns the car over all the time, but the connection to the coil is not there all the time when the starter is going. I tested this by running a wire from a hot fuse direct to the coil and the car starts quickly that way. I can feel like there is a spot in the key turn where a disconnect is happening to the wire to the coil. Once started and the key is back to the run position, it works fine.
So, can you replace the ignition with the console in place? I really don't want to remove the console if possible.
