well...
as title says... 97 Blazer, 4.3 4x4 4L60E. Ignition switch has gone out...Keeps the key in, you cannot turn it to the OFF position. there is however, a hidden button on the inside of the column. you access it by using your key to pop the panel off, its about the size of a dime and on the bottom of the column, right by the wheel. on the side by the ignition / key. push a pencil or other slender stick upwards and press the solenoid release and the key will back out. other than the key stuck its pushing transmission into limp mode... 2nd and 3rd gear only... and 2nd is only if i manually drop it to 2nd. until i can put the Ignition switch in, i have hotwired the 4x4 fuse, to the Trans Fuse. And the trans shifts fine... Just passing this information allong and hope someone else gets helped by it.
