Good Morning! My 1971 Demon will not start by using the key, but will start if jumped under the hood. When the key is turned the power comes on but the car does not crank. The interior lights dim when I attempt to start the car but nothing turns over.
I have been using a screwdriver under the hood to jump the car, starts up fine like this. The problem was a slow progression, for about a year it would start with the key about 50/50. Occasionally I would have the key twisted and nothing would happen, then after about 10 seconds of holding the key in the start position it would begin to turn over. Finally the key just stopped working completely.
Any ideas what this could be? Thank you in advance!
