Push Button Start
#21
I suppose one concern I might have is how would you bypass this if it failed now that the cylinder is removed?
Our Hyundai had keyless entry and push button but had a manual bypass if anything failed.
I'm just assuming that most other keyless entry/push button start cars have some sort of bypass for a worst case scenario.

i don't know of a bypass system on any push-button start car that i've driven.
but keyed ignitions don't typically have bypasses. why should there be one for a keyless system?
aside from hotwiring it, that is. which would basically be the emergency workaround if you add a keyless system. with the bonus that you wouldn't have to worry about the steering column lock.

So after Googling - which I probably should of done to refresh my memory first - I found that what I'm thinking of is a key slot to use in the event your fob is dead or the car isnt picking it up by RFID.
You stick the fob in the slot then start the car.
In the case of the OP's push button system, if the ring doesnt pick up the chip for some reason, how do you get the car started??

Which, we can now learn to do with the wiring information above. And I echo that getting rid of the steering column lock is a plus. Hotwiring does no good if the steering is locked.

sure you can keep the key stub in the ignition, but it's going to be sitting on the workbench not doing much...
