Re: [Peugeot-L] 1978 504 automatique ignition key question

Gil, Mike,

  Uh, I'm pretty sure that the government has mandated that the key can't be removed from the ignition in automatic-equipped cars unless the shifter is in park.  I'm sure that a 78 Pug would have conformed to this requirement as every other car with AT sold in the USA has had to since the early 70's.

  Therefore, if you can remove the key, I would say that there is an interlock mechanism that is flakey or broken.

Ben Pender
