Locked up

[supersquid]

After my nap today I went out to my 1998 Diso and the key would not turn. I sat in the truck for about 15 minutes trying different things. Finally I locked and then unlock the doors and the key released and the truck started right up. Any idea's why this happened? :banghead:

Get a new key cylinder now. It's going to happen again. And, soon enough, no matter what you do, it will lock up totally.

 

[MUSKYMAN]

I thought all locked up was the shit with a D1?

 

[Jaime]

Dan, is that why you have the button start?

Yep!

And just how do you hotwire the Disco?

Ok, I'll just randomly hook up wires until something happens.

I was looking for specifics, as in which of the pretty colors do what. Got to be a pair for power and another for crank. Which ones are which, thank you very friggin' much.

Do a search. I've talked about bypassing the switch before in detail. It's not hard to do.
