Hi,
Gabriela did that too… I found that by waiting about 10 seconds after the oil pressure buzzer goes off, she starts just fine… glow plug?

The two bigger ones have heavy battery wires attached. To rule out the button, short the two terminals with a short piece of wire, or needle nose pliers. It the starter clicks and runs, replace button. To rule out the solenoid, use a large screw driver and short accoss the two big terminals. There should be a big spark, but the starter should run. If you want to avoid the spark, you can rig these test shorts using a jumper cable, with the battery switch off and use the switch to test.

After turning the key (and getting the low oil-pressure buzzer), when I press the starter button, absolutely nothing happens. I press it again, and it usually starts right up. Occasionally more pushes on the button are required. Is the remedy going to be simply replacing the push-button ignition switch or am I likely facing something more to fix?
