    Ignition problems now!

    Seems like I fix something and something else breaks.
    Now I've got and ignition wire problem. If I pull down on the wire it works. It's a two wire connector on the side with the key. One is green and the other is red/yellow.
    Anyone had this problem.

    I'm not sure which wires are the problem.

        When you say, "when I pull on the wire, it works"... what works?

          The car starts right up. When I pull a little on the wires on the steering column. Pics below.

            It's the wiring that goes to the other side of the ignition key.

              I figured out its something with the ignition key cylinder on the wire side. It moves around. So I'm guessing it's not making good enough connection or something.
