 I've been driving around all summer with nary an issue with my JH. I knew it was to good to be true!. Today, I started up and went to the drug store - after completing my mission (not Viagra!), and attempting to go home, it would not turn over. It just played dead. I could hear the fuel pump running (NAPA Facet Knockoff) but that was it. I wiggled the wires on the selenoid and made sure battery had tight connections and still  nothing. Finally I borrowed a screwdriver from a passerby motorist, and jumped the two terminals on the selenoid while enlisting the aid of a kid gawking at my COOL CAR, to turn the key. It started immediately, and I made it home.

I know the PO replaced the ignition switch. Are they subject to failure? Anybody got any ideas?

Thanks-PK
