Sounds awefully like the ignition switch is worn out.

If it's a roundy, new ign switches are cheap.
If it's a Clubby..... :cry: I don't think you can get new ones now.

On a Clubman ignition switch there are 4 wires. One is Battery power "Brown". White goes straight to coil. White with red trace goes to start solenoid and the last one White also ?? goes to the Fuse box Ignition Fuse.

For those people who do not know....
I have NEW replacement ignition switches for the Clubman if any one needs one.
I also have NEW centre dash mounted Mini Ignition Switches.
All well priced.
I can post to any where Fast.
I specialize in hard to get Mini Electrical parts.
If you can't find something, try me.
Just email me for more details.
