Well, I finally isolated the intermittant no-start problem to a faulty
ignition switch (again...). The previous owner replaced it about 3
years ago with one that is not keyed to the doors, thus requiring
separate keys. Anyone have any idea for locating one, other than my
(shudder) local dealer? Since I have to get a new switch, I am
definitely going to key it to the door locks. I still am puzzled by my
windshield wiper behavior, though. As some of you may remember, when
the car stopped starting, the non-parking wipers cured themselves! For
the past several months, the wipers, although working fine when turned
on, just refused to park in the down position, bouncing up a couple of
inches when turned off. Now they don't do that anymore. Appreciate any
ideas on that as well. Regards, Tom
