ok guys i have a 91 cummins and i dont know what happend ok i was hauling some cows to the ranch and all my stuff worked fine butt once i turned it off it was hard to turn the key to the start position kindof like it was a different key in the slot butt finaly after fidgiting with it for a while i got it to turn and start. butt when it started i noticed that my air conditioner and power windows didnt work, i checked the fuses and they were fine, so i called my friend and he said that the same thing had happend to his truck and he fixed it by wiring a switch to something on his fuse panel butt he couldnt exactly remember what he did soo im asking yall what do i do to fix this ive tried everything i know with no luck thanks for any help

 

Sounds like the ignition switch itself may have finally gone bad. Not really unusual after 19 years...

 

Its the ignition switch for sure. My truck does the same thing is the switch isn't exactly in the right position.

 

Ya my 92 does the same thing, just have to make sure the key moves back after you start the motor.

 

I'm in the same boat, but my wasen't fixed with the switch

 

ya sorry totaly forgot i changed the key switch and it didnt fix anything and when i turn my key back no power my dad said it could be the other part of the switch i dont know hwat its called butt it looks like a long key and is under the key switch

 

You'll have to chamge the internal part of the switch also. You could try and clean up the contacts if they're still all in place and not broken rather than change it out. It's either that or start wiring up seperate power switches for everything that doesn't work!
Good Luck

 

Heres a thing a found about replacing the switch.

Hey wanted to ask how your problem is working out. I've got the same problem yet I'm hell bent and determined why the wires are still getting hot.
