No power to the HVAC,stereo,cig lighter,turn signals/wipers unless I jiggle the ign key then all would come on and work fine. Now even jiggling the key has no effect. I checked the fuses and they are fine,car starts fine also. Maybe ignition switch?
I have no idea and wanted to ask first before taking it to dealer and getting raped

Car is a 94 sport with tilt wheel and auto tranny. 4wd

 

sounds like ignition switch to me if wiggling key helped

 

Another vote for your ignition switch (mounted on steering column). It could just be dry and stiff but it's likely coming apart (it happens). Fortunately, they're not that expensive and a new one will probably last you another 20 years.

Mine is acting similar but still works with a little key wiggling. I'm gonna pull it and bathe it in dielectric, maybe I can get another couple years out of it before needing to replace.

 

I'm having literally the exact same issue. Wondering if by ignition switch you mean the lock cylinder or the electrical connection at the other end of the linkage that slides when you turn the key. Thank you

exactly the pic i needed. thanks so much

 

new issue... installed the new ignition switch, and now all my heater, wipers etc work again however when i turn the key to the start position i get nothing. I must have it adjusted wrong?

 

Probably. There's a bit of adjustment in the mounting slots so you can slide it backwards or forwards. Make sure the rod isn't bent too.

 

Adjustment ....put key in accesory move switch down as far as possible with out key turning tighten it up .
