Hey guys. I recently bought a b18b1 swapped 95 ex coupe and the switch wouldn't let the power stay on for the car in the "on" position. Not wanting to be stuck at work an hour from the house (at autozone thankfully) I rigged a kill switch from the power wire off of the lock cylinder. Everything works like it did before the switch went kaput except the climate control. No lights, no air, no heat. AC and PS are both deleted but I should have power for the blower motor, lights, and heat. Is there a relay I possibly fried? Or is it something else? With it being a LS swap I don't know where to start and I'm not exactly strapped for cash, but I'm not buying a $230 switch if I don't have to.

Thanks

 

Grab a used switch off ebay or a local wrecking yard. I think you just need the plastic switch hardware on the end of the cylinder, not the whole lock cylinder.

There are some aftermarket options on rockauto . com in the Electrical Switch selection under Ignition Starter Switch.
