My car is a 1983 633 with 5 speed manual transmission. After using the car all day, I turned the key to the start position, and.... nothing, no click, nothing other than the panel lights coming on which they do anyway in position one. I bump started the car to get home. Starter and battery are 6 months old, and besides, the instrument lights don't dim at all like when there is a load present. I am thinking ignition switch, but was first wondering if there is a relay inline to consider first?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
Ignition switch bad?

Re: Ignition switch bad?
I would start by checking out the circuits on pages 110 & 113 to determine what may be the cause
before trying to guess at what might be the problem.
