I'd rather have it be the ignition switch then anything else, since that's a bit easier to repair, but:

Do you know how to test it? I haven't been able to find any way to do this.

Is it possible that part of the problem could be the preglow time relay? According to all sources, it's supposed to be on the front drivers side fender, which it isn't. However, with all this ghetto electrical work, it looks like it may be installed under the dash. Is this even possible?

Electrical work is new for me...I'm just hoping it's not in need of an ignition switch and a preglow time relay.j
