I can't edit titles, but it should read "How do 'pushbutton-start cars' hold IGN on?"
Simple question, complicated answer.
It seems to me, that a relay is not what the OEMs would use. They aren't the most reliable component money can buy, and I don't imagine it would take more than a couple relay failures when the car is going 80 on the freeway to end in a couple high profile lawsuits against car makers.
So what do you guys think? I'm not privy to what the OEMs do, so I don't know. DO they simply use relays? What component could be used to hold the ignition on that would be reliable?
