    Just did mine today, and found out that i had to use a foot long philips#2for the upper screw of the switch. It also worked on the side screw. No more buzzing noise at startup. Mine was in its early stages, but better be safe than sorry. thx for this video. much love bro.

    My 2004 Honda CRV, 200k miles, intermittent starting... Sounded like the battery, but headlights did not dim when trying to start. Thought maybe the Starter, but when it did start - no problem. Watched this video on 'Starter Switch', ordered the part from eBay, installed myself - FIXED!

    Hey guy , I just watched your video on replacing the ignition switch on the 2008 Honda crv . Question / I have a 2008 crv , it cranks most of the time but every once in a while it does nothing when I try to crank it . The lights on the dash come on but the starter don't make any noise . So when I keep trying to crank it , it finally cranks . So could it be the ignition switch . It's not the starter , it's not the starter relay , so I'm thinking that's the only thing left . What's your opinion ?

    Sometimes when I start my 08 CRV it cranks right up but turns off if I let go of the key immediately and let it snap back. I found that if I keep slight forward pressure on the key while starting then it doesn't do this...almost like there's a bad connection if the key snaps back too much. And when I turn the car off, it takes just a slight turn of the key to do so. Thinking about replacing the ignition switch but wanted your opinion first.

    When replacing the ignition switch it comes with its own keys. My question is do they have chips in it to start the crv or is it just a regular key that comes with it and that turns it on no problem and no programming required? Honda is wanting to charge me $600 to get 2 new keys made for my crv but if I can just replace the ignition switch and it comes with keys already I can install it myself and will be a whole lot cheaper than what Honda wants to charge me lol

    My Honda CRV is having an issue where when I turn the key nothing happens but if I keep trying it will eventually start like normal. After installing the new ignition switch it wouldn’t start at all. It would crank but never start. Does this sound like a faulty part? I put the old one back in for now because at least I can get it to run after a few tries.
