Bad ignition switch?

Postby BKH808 » Mon May 19, 2014 2:34 am

Trying to figure out if there is something wrong with my ignition switch. When key is turned to start I get the clicking like my starter is dead but if I jump the starter straight to 12v it turns over. Right after this I can plug everything back in and turn the key to start the car but once it turn it off and start again I get the clicking until I jump the starter again. Haven't gotten to test the starter signal yet from the ignition but wanted some ideas first if anyone knew.

Sounds like a stater issue , that happens on a few
Corollas as well , but to be safe try checking voltage
Dirty/rusted/ corroded contacts,
