I sometimes turn the key and nothing happens. All the dashlights come up before going to turn the starter. But when i go to postion 3 sometimes it doesn't work and this worries me. Any help would be appriciated. thanks in advance

 

Maybe your starter or ignition switch?

 

Do you think the starter could be creating a short ?

 

i would say it's your ignition switch.
I had same problem, and it's worse when it's hot wheather.
replace the ignition switch

 

if you get that "tick" noise when it doesn't start its probably the starter, no tick and its the ignition switch

 

Thanks a bunch guys...There is the "tick noise" so i will check the starter first and go from there. thanks again.

 

If you have an auto, make sure your gear is fully in park. I remember when I had my Max and that use to happen. I used to be like HUH??? Until I realized that I never put the car in park fully.
