I've been looking around and only sees simple pushbutton start ignitions. I don't really want extra switches up there just to run electric stuff. Is anybody know of pushbutton start but also handle to the electrical positions? Thank you

I'm not sure I've ever seen push start buttons with multiple positions. The way push button start works on most modern cars (like my 2012 explorer) one push (without foot on the brake) turns on the typical 'accessory' position. Second push (without foot on the brake) would be equivalent to the second position where the ignition is on but not cranking to start. Pushing the button with a foot on the brake actually starts the car.

The button itself is a simple push button with all the logic being controlled by the ECU and foot brake switch.

For what you're looking to accomplish you would need more than just the start button.

Phantom works touch and go start system. Has accessory, ignition and start.

looks like the perfect thing – but it looks like the company went out of business now you can only get them for $700 on eBay. Does anybody know of anything similar to this or you can control your assessor Rees want to do with your button ?
