Ignition switch failure?

[istvan82]

Hi Everybody,

I am experiencing some strange issues, my car just ignores the first three or four attempts to switch on the ignition. Once started, everything works perfectly. If I turn it off, the restart is no problem. But if I leave it turned off for about an hour, the ignition problem occures again.

Instead of explaining it please see the 50 secs video I uploaded to youtube. Link:

Anybody knows what it is?

Thanks,
Istvan
