So I'm able to jump start my car with the ol' pin 14 to pin 11 diagnostic connector deal. Does this mean the ignition switch is fried? Before I go tearing apart the steering column, does anyone know of any other reason why the car wouldn't start with the key?
It's a 1991 325ic, automatic. I just replaced the lock cylinder using the allen wrench trick (wouldn't even spin), car worked fine for about two days, now it won't start. The key turns normally, i.e. it doesn't just spin freely or anything. It goes to accessory position, then to ignition, I can hear the ICV kick on, but nothing. Starter works, due to the aforementioned pin trick proving so.
Any help is appreciated. And FYI, my bentley is currently in the mail. Hardcover too!
