Every time you turn the key in the ignition switch, it triggers a complex chain of events within your vehicle. In most conventional petrol cars, the ignition system transforms a low voltage spark from the car battery into a high voltage charge. This is then transferred to the spark plugs, which ignite the fuel and air inside the engine and produce the horsepower needed to get your vehicle moving. And all of this happens in just a few milliseconds!
But when something goes wrong with the ignition system, you’ll be going nowhere fast. Signs you may have a fault somewhere in the ignition include the engine misfiring, the car stalling, or strange noises coming from the engine bay. You may even find you can’t turn the key in the ignition barrel at all. When this happens, it’s time to check the relevant parts and, where necessary, fit a suitable replacement.
