SOURCE: Help locating the Ignition Switch on a 2001 Camaro PLEASE!

It should be located on the right side of the steering column about half way to the floor. It is activated by a rod connected to the lock key cylinder that runs down the column to the switch.
Let me know if you need anything further.
Good luck.

SOURCE: replace ignition in 1999 camaro

The steering wheel does have to come off to access the ignition lock cylinder, however the ignition switch is mounted to the column and does not require the wheel to be removed. A locksmith would have rekeyed the lock cylinder. The high beam switch is mounted of the left side of the column and is actuated by a 6 inch long rod. This does not require the wheel to come off.

SOURCE: 83 camaro has no lights at all. all fuses are good

Check the fusible links on the starter harness. There should be 2 black rubber plugs on the wires going to the starter. I'm not sure which one is for the lights. I always replaced both because I figured if one was bad it wouldn't be long before I'd be back under there to do the other one. Hope this helps.

1986 2.8 camaro starts an dies, but will run on spray. new computer, dist. injectors an pump.

Hold the ignition switch just off where the engine cranks after it starts, if it stays running you need to replace the ignition starter switch. This is the switch at the bottom of the steering column that the key cylinder operates via a rod. See photo below.

83 camaro wont start, got new ignition switch and tumbler.

It's probably time to pull the starter off and have it tested. I think places like autozone or advance will check it free. Before you do that, make sure all connections are clean and tight.

I need to replace the ignition switch on my 94 Camaro. Do I have to use a special ignition switch that uses the "VATS" system, or can I just replace the switch that comes with its own set of keys that are...

you can use any non-VATS lock/key and then get rid of the VATS system completely with this: http://newrockies.com . It will save you a lot instead of buying the VATS key/lock to match your TDM.

95 chevy camaro with pass key will not start. Replaced key and it started. Later it did not start. What's going on? What are some things to try?

If it's the same as the VATS system in my 86 Corvette (resistor pellet in key) the ignition switch might need to be replaced. The contacts on the key wore low, replacing the key helped for a short time but the new contacts wore the switch down faster then it too needed to be replaced. $200!

How do i reprogram my ignition switch n my 92 camaro rs.i will not start ,brand new starter,ignition switch. new fuses.all the power comes on.

You can't. I just replaced mine on my 92 Camaro and it's a pain in the ***. You can only install the ignition switch one way, then you have to make sure that the rod coming off the tumbler (where your key goes) is in the right spot.
