you definitly NEED to replace the switch. the remote start is not desinged to do what it is doing now. and its a hazzard. if you were driving and the remote start for some reason shut off the truck would then die while you were driving and cause you to possibly have an accident. in a good case senario you might just get stuck at a light or in an intersection or parking lot and not be in an accident, but you would have to get towed and thats not fun.

Honestly, you really have only one option at this point. Take it to a trusted technician and diagnose what the real problem is. It maybe simple enough that you can repair it yourself.

Ideal - cmon dude, add to topics in a useful manner, not stuff that is obvious.

Story - Phzzzt! Hey, what happened?! ... Isn't it obvious?

Moral - Never dismiss the obvious.

fabman, no you do not need to spend even more money and take this to get diagnosed........after all we already did that and have found the problem (im not sure if loneranger reads the entire thread or not), and for the record, as well as for ranger, it IS simple enough to bypass yes, but you wont be able to take apart the switch and "repair" it or any thing like that. at any rate, its a little more complex than what you are thinking and I would not be able to just tell you how to do it without you being able to get in there with a DMM and do some testing yourself. i really recommend you replace the switch anyway. im sure you can find a cheaper one somewhere. have you scoured the internet yet? dont make me find one for you...lol.
