So, i've read all the issues with the steering lock, and this does not appear to be the problem. When i get in my car, push the clutch to the floor, then press the start button, sometimes it cycles straight through and starts as it should. Other times, it just goes to the ACC, then requiring another press to get to the ON. At this point, everything turns on, exactly as normal, except it does not crank. There is no weird noises whatsoever. I can hear the fuel pump kick on, the steering wheel lock disengages, the dash lights and stereo turn on fine, but it doesn't try to start. When i press the button again, it just turns off. The car has always eventually started, but sometimes i have to press the button 40-50 times, just continuously cycling through until it catches.

Does anyone have any experience with this?
