  • Strange electrical problems with 85 trans am

    Hi I have a really strange problem with my 1985 Trans Am

    It's a 5.0 liter V8 with TPI.

    When I turn the key Nothing happens, no check lights, no fan starting to run, no radio, NOTHING.
    Now here's the strange part, I have a remote controlled automatic starter installed and when I push the button on the remote .. THE CAR WILL START!

    I do have power because the interior lights come on, and I can start the car with the remote control, I checked all circuit breakers and I changed out the neutral safety switch and cleaned the ignition switch that is located on the steering column.I'm going to replace the ignition switch and the actual key switch tommorow, but I'm running out of options and the book's wiring diagrams don't help much either!

    Anybody that knows where to look or where to start?

    thanks
Working...
