I have a '92 dodge daytona es 3.0L When i turn the key in the ignition, it just turns (hardly pauses at all in the 'on' posistion) The starter doesn't try turning the engine over no matter how hard the clutch is in, or how fast or slow i turn the key. There's still power from the battery and all the automatic stuff works.Do i have to replace where the key turns or something else?

Try jump starting it. If it starts you have a bad battery. Lights and accessories only draw a small % pf power vs what the starter needs.

Ignition switch on dodge dynasty?

I had a similar problem years ago. As long as your dash lights come on, it's likely you can use an external pushbutton switch to run the starter. There are likely just 4 wires on the ignition switch. Power from the battery, and switched to:
accessories
main car stuff (dash lights, ignition, signals, etc)
starter.
splice in wires from battery and starter to new switch, and you're good to go. This worked for years on my old car.

Have a 92 Dodge Dakota v8 will not turn over by the keys replace the starter, solenoid, battery, ignition switch, but still will not turn over by the key

Check the operation of the ignition relay as well.
IS THERE AN AFTER-MARKET SECURITY SYSTEM INSTALLED? If so, you may need to disable it, as it is beginning to sound like that may be the issue.

On my 92 dakota I'm not sure if its my starter or my ignition that's gone bad when I turn the key not a peep comes out of it but the ignition doesn't feel quite right so I don't want to go blow money on a...

just slide under the truck and test for 12 volts at the small wire to the starter whilel turning the ignition key. If you have 12 volts then it's your starter or engine ground strap. if not then you can suspect the ignition switch, neutral safety switch, clutch switch, fuse, relay or alarm with disabler.

My 92 ES300 will not allow the key to turn in the ignition, car does not start. not battery, or check engine light and I have turned the wheels as I an turning the key, wheel not locked. What can I do?

I have a 1992 Lexus ES 300 and I have discovered that there is a security mechanism, that once activated, will not allow the key to turn all the way--preventing ignition.

Wait for about half an hour to an hour and it will go back to normal.

My car starts but cuts out when i try to... my car starts but cuts out when i try to put it in gear. runs fine when im driving.

Have you tried cycling key for fault codes? Turn ignition to on (not start) then off, then on, then off, then on, leave it on, and count flashes of check engine light.
flash,flash,pause, flash flash, is code 22. 3 flashes, pause, then 5 flashes, would be code 35, etc. See what you get, & get back to us with them if you need more help.
