Ignition switch?

[Ed Kellock]

"AutohausAZ, they list the brand with the part"  

And, when they offer a part from more than one manufacturer, you can choose
which manufacturer, or price, you're most comfortable with.

And on that note, check the brand and place of manufacture when you buy
parts for these cars. You can quite often put a new part in that's worse
than the original. BTDT several times. That's one of the reasons I like
AutohausAZ, they list the brand with the part.

As for the problem, check for power coming from the switch that goes to the
starter. You can check it at the switch, or out by the starter. This would
confirm wether it's the starter or the switch. Certainly sounds like the
typical switch failure to me, though.
