I had the bright idea to unplug the ignition, was going to take it out and see what was wrong with it.
I had charged up the battery and plugged everything back in and the fuel pump was ticking so I knew the circuit was still hot with the key off.
I unplugged the plastic connector pig tail to the ignition switch from the harness and... It all kept running.
Not the ignition switch after all.
Huh?
So I unplugged things up front again in order to turn everything off, now I am wondering what I did to cause all this.
It must have been me, I must have shorted something out or something when I was working under there.
This all started when I installed the new electric fan.
I pulled out the windscreen washer pump at the sane time because it wasn't working.
Wonder if I shorted something up in that corner by the master cylinders?
Now it's raining buckets outside and since I'm a "curbside mechanic" I'd either have to put on rain gear or not do it today.
Maybe I'll get a break.
Everything was fine until I put in the new fan, going to have to try and recall if I did anything else stupid.
