Everything as in the engine continues to run, the radio stays on, the power windows continue to work, etc? What happens when you open the drivers front door? Does everything turn off? If not does the dome light work when the drivers front door is open? If it does not than the drivers front door switch might be the issue.

I’m happy to assist further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/jeremy_d728a59f986299fa

    The wipers, radio, and instrument panel stays lite up. The truck recognizes that all the doors are open when opening them. I have replaced the ignition switch with no changes I believe this one is gonna be outta my capabilites. I believe I have a problem with the bcm. What do you think

  • daniel keith Sep 13, 2013

    So I took it the Chevy dealer and they tested the bcm, pcm, and ecm and flashed all with no luck. They are telling me that it is a possible wiring issue and they wanted to keep it. I believe I am going to try and hunt this one down on my own before paying alot of money. I believe I will start by replacing battery cables. Anyone else have any ideals

    Replacing the battery cables will not help. You are looking for a short to power. If your can tell me specifically what is on and what is not on I can help you narrow down some circuits.

  • daniel keith Sep 13, 2013

    The bcm is not getting correct power. Everything stays on after vehicle is off wipers, radio, instrument panel lights.

    In the I/P block you should be able to find two fuses, TBC ACCY and TBC IGN 0 check for power at those fuses with the key off. There should be none.

    In the underwood fuse block you should see a fuse called TBC IGN 1. There should be no power at that fuse with the key off as well.

  • daniel keith Sep 13, 2013

    Checked those fuses the other day and they do have power all the time. Almost every fuse in the fuse box has power with ignition off

    What happens if you unplug the ignition switch?

  • Jeremy W.
    Jeremy W. Sep 13, 2013

    With it unplugged check for power on the orange, yellow and white wires. There should be none. If there is power on one or more let me know wich one and we'll narrow it down a little more.

  • Jeremy W.
    Jeremy W. Sep 13, 2013

    Also check the brown and pink wires with the ignition switch unplugged. There should be no power there as well.

  • Jeremy W.
    Jeremy W. Sep 13, 2013

    If everything turns off with the ignition switch unplug than I have to wonder if the new ignition switch was installed correctly. I have replaced many of them over the years and I always struggle to get the teeth lined up correctly so the switch works in the correct positions.

How do i program my key remote for toyota rush

Many cars have a different process to enabling passive systems, some require turn the key on and off 3 times then hold it in the on position while holding down the remote, or you may hear a chirp to start the calibration process, the safest way of course to marry the unit to the vehicle is to scoot down to the toyota dealer and get them to do the program, it may cost, but they also have to make sure everything works correctly too, so they will stand by the service they provide you. hope this helps, happy holidays.

Ignition switch cylinder has been replaced but problem remains. I turn key to 'on', everything normal. When I turn key to 'start' there is no resistance or springback and starter does not engage. 1992...

Check ignition switch, the switch sit on the steering colum, under the dash, on the top side of the colum, make sure the rod that come's from the key is still in the switch, you will have to remove switch to check, held on with two small screw's, after removeble of switch, with screw driver work switch, if it don't feel spring like, switch is bad

Theft light is flashing steering wheel is locked and car won't start

First thing to do is take the key and manually lock and unlock the door.
See if that fixes everything.
If the steering remains locked try pulling it hard while you try the key
Can you put the transmission in neutral
Try a different key
Try smacking the key into the lock lightly
Hopefully one of the tips will work for you

Engine light comes on occasionally and when it does, the overdrive will not go on and cruise control doesn't work. Next day, the light is off and everything is fine. What is the problem?

you need to have it checked for codes when the light is on,what you have is a soft code,that just means after you cycle the key to off then back on the code has cleared it's self.
a hard code is one that will remain after the key has been cycled.but to find the cause you need to check it before you shut your vehicle off,
