The wire is constantly being stretched when turning. and its probably old and may be broke, but intermittently makes contact...

If nothing else, youve eliminated another possible problem

I see what you're saying but it's a lot of work. However just bypassing both the igniiton switch and kill switch with a couple of short wires with a spade connector at each end could be worth doing.

Both plugs are in the little box above the RC servo;

The two you need to short out for the ignition are obvious (there's ony two wires on that plug, one is red the other is red/black).
The two that are for the kill switch are diagonal to each other, if you guess it wrong you'll turn the brake light on.

Just pull both connection blocks apart, make up a couple of short connectors with the right ends on and plug them in.
