Electrical problem
1998 Honda Civic 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

Where is the Ignition Switch Modular located?
I'm having problems when I turn the key, it takes up 3 tries before car starts. I hear a little clicking sound. I've also replaced my battery which helped for a while. I was told by the local Auto Shop that it may be my switch. Your support would be greatly appreciated.

Thank!

Hi maricinton,

It could be the ignition switch or starter.

Here is a link for you to understand the system better and some test that you can carry out. If you require further assistance, post reply to question and I will get back to you.
