Can I just wire in a push button start on this 1989 lebaron with tilt?

And if so, has anyone else done it and how did you go about it?

Push button, 2 Wires, one to starter, one to battery and...

The switch itself, as it seems to be a possible culprit on the non start issue. I dropped the column and took off the switch I thought was the ignition switch, but no other parts store images of the...

Ok, so I'm thinking this manual is stupid and doesn't know what it's talking about. That can't be the ignition switch.

Where exactly is the ignition switch on an 89, lebaron with tilt wheel?...

Really? That's kind of funny but I guess typical Chrysler lol. I had even hoped it was a shared part with another manufacturer, but no lol. How to switch the plates?

Oem is 4373418. But I looked. Why is this one so damn difficult to find?

Ok, so where else besides autostoned can you buy an ignition starter switch for an 89 Lebaron with tilt wheel? AutozOne is special ordered only. Napa, Oreilly, rockauto, cargeek etc only have non...

I hear the solenoid when I try to start it and like a whirring? sound but starter gear not engaging motor.

Ok, so I have got into the car a bit more....


The battery full charge, just won't spin the motor over at all. Starter is working as I can hear it come on when I turn the key on. I have started...

Sometimes. I'm wondering if the wiring could be bad, or if there is an impedance that's causing it to not yet enough power to spin, even though the battery tests at 12.3 volts which should be more...

I tried to jump it, thinking maybe battery was dead. Still nothing. The teeth on flex plate are ok, I turned the engine over again by hand and still nada. I'm going to go check the voltage now.

Update:

Brand new Nippondenso starter, new starter relay, battery, and other parts.


Starter does not engage, almost like the gear has nothing to grab onto.


So, now I'm thinking ring...

Update.


Motor turns freely 360 degrees, crank was almost impossible to get a long ratchet on and turning more than half turn as it hit pullies and passenger side motor mount. But on cam, it...

K, that's what I thought as well. It is rather tight quarters in there and difficult to fit a long ratchet to turn with and after getting a good half turn with no issue and then getting a lot harder,...

Starter won't turn over no click, crank won't turn either. Belt is fine. One of metal relays was yanked off the inner fender, not sure which one it is.



Stupid question maybe, but how far much...

Crank will move with breaker bar.

Not easy but it does move. Rotor is burnt to ----, coil is super old looking and rusty.

Thanks for the replies.

Belt is intact
Cam/crank don't move at all when trying to start the car. Starter seems to want to start the car.


The previous guys who looked at it said, fuel pump...

Here is the issue.

89 Lebaron 2.5 Auto.

Car allegedly had motor/trans rebuilt recently, not sure if true or not, but figured worth mentioning.

Car drove fine for months, with occasional...

Crazy how it is a ghost town here with so many enthusiasts, Especially with such a rare beast.

The best Turbo Chrysler ever built hands down, not to mention the best looking interior put into a...

Free bump for a good guy and a great car. Hope someone saves it.

Thank you for the replies.

As for the why, It is not because I feel the 3.0 is bad, it is quite good. But it is a foreign heart in a historically named American car and as such should have an...

I apologize if this the wrong place but I could not find another place that seemed more approriate.

Anyways, I am curious about what other Chryco V6 powerplants are swappable into the 92/93 Iroc...
