Default Ignition switch

Hi,

I have a 2000 S40. I am not able to fully turn on the ignition switch to start the vehicle. I am able to turn the key all the way to position 3 but am not able to get into position 4. I do not have any problems removing the key. I tried shifting gears and tried the Neutral position too.

Any help will be appreciated.

Regards,
Tim

I would appreciate if someone can provide me inputs on the issues I have with the ignition switch for my car.

Thanks.

Usually that is a bad ignition assembly the mechanical part.
