Intermittent key-insertion recognition fault
Tags: #ignition · #low-confidence
Low-confidence, single-source report: the ignition key is sometimes not recognized when inserted (no starter activation), while at other times all systems work normally. A video transcript from the reporting owner describes the pattern: "Key not inserted... inserting key... nothing... suddenly everything activates, blower runs... key to start... won't crank... weird behavior."1 This points to a possible key-switch contact wear issue, a BCM ignition-detection fault, or a starter-relay logic error, but the root cause was not confirmed in the available discussion. This may be related to broader starter/relay issues discussed elsewhere in this section — worth cross-checking if you hit similar symptoms.
