Key wont stay..
My key wont stay on the "on" position when I start it. It goes to "acc" I had this problem like a couple of months ago. It was the contacts on the key cylinder, the mechanic grinded them and put the cylinder back together and it worked fine. my question is, do I have to buy the whole cylinder or could i get one of a similar car and try to fix it?

Sounds like the switch, not the tumbler. Any junkyards close by? Two screws on the back of the tumbler hold the switch on.
Just match all of the wiring-I tried to swap an 90 Integra's with my sons 88 Civic-alittle different.
But if your mechanic ground down something on the tumbler then you would need that too-with the matching key.
