Ignitions: What they Do and How They Work

Your OEM ignition helps your vehicle start properly, just like the day you drove it home from the dealership. Turn your key in its lock cylinder, and an ignition switch under the hood triggers; your car battery, a starter motor, an ignition coil, and a starter solenoid then get to work. Together, they produce and send an electric charge (a "spark") to your spark plugs; the plugs use it to combust the mixture of air and gas in your engine. Your vehicle then starts and stays running the way it ought to, with help from the alternator.

Having problems starting? It can mean a bad ignition. If you have a code reader, plug it in and do a thorough inspection. More importantly, look for the following symptoms.

Signs an Ignition is Going Bad

• Stalling while driving
• Flickering lights and displays on the dashboard while driving
• The inability to turn your key, sometimes caused by excessive ignition cylinder wear
• No noise from your starter motor (when a dead battery isn't otherwise the issue)
• The inability to start at all, usually because of corroded electrical circuitry

If you see any of these, you may need to replace a few ignition parts, if not your entire ignition.
