I have a 1990 Honda Accord LX. It has been running fine. The other day I went to crank it up and it started, but when I let go of the key it died. After letting it sit for a couple of hours it cranked right up and ran fine for a couple of days. Then yesterday it did the same thing again. What could be the problem? :confused:

Replace the ignition switch:

1. Disconnect negative battery cable.
2. Remove dashboard lower cover and knee bolster.
3. Disconnect 5-P connector from under-dash fuse box and 7-P connector from main wire harness.
4. Remove steering column covers.
5. Insert key and turn it to "0".
6. Remove two screws from switch and replace.
