i have a big problem... the plug that connects the ignition module to the electrical chasis is where my problem is. On the plug there are 10 wires. 3 of them are supposed to be hot, 10, 12, and 12 volts. Now, i have been fooling around trying to install a push button starter on my car and somehow now the pins that are supposed to be 12v are 0v, and the 0 volt pins are now 12v. What should i do, ive checked the fuses, i am going to check the relays, but beyond that i have no idea. please help.....

Your post is WAY too general for anyone to even have a clue what's going on. You don't mention anything about which are hot or anything...why don't you try undoing all your wiring so that you can drive you car again?

FYI, do you have a Haynes manual? It's really helpful as it has the wiring diagrams for the ignition.

I'm assuming that you first have to turn your key to ON, then you can push your starter button to start the car.

The continuity for the ON position is:
2-3-4 and 9-10

The continuity for the Start position is:
2-4-7 and 6-9-10.

Looking at the prong...

4 3 X X 2 1
10 9 8 7 6 5

So you should have 2 sets of three wires to use that start, I dunno why you only have 3 wires. This should help you fix your problem.
