Hello there I have a 96 a/t SE converted to manual
My ignition switch died and I know it's the switch because I can crank up the car by touching the starting circuit wires with the post on the fuse box. I decided to buy an engine start button from eBay and I saw a video online on how to wire it up. The video tells you to use a volt meter to check for 12v when you turn the key to crank it. With my switch not working I'm not getting a proper reading. It comes with 4 wires 2 blue a red and a black one which is obviously the ground. My guess is that the 2 blue wires go to the black/white and black/yellow? As far as the red one goes I have no clue which is where I need your help.
This is the same button I got and the video I was talking about

Well since no one replied in time I just kindda winged it. The first blue wire I connected to the black white second one to the black yellow and the red the the blue and black I grounded to the chassis. Now my car turns on no problem. I hope this helps people out there.
