Owned this truck for about two years now. It has a manual transmission. Recently it doesn't always start when I turn the ignition knob. The lights on the dash come on when the knob passes the first click, but when it reaches the start position nothing happens. No crank, no clicking from the alternator or other noise. It acts like the knob is still at the first position. If I back the switch up and try again, usually it will fire right up.
Now it sometimes takes two tries to start, and I'm worried eventually it will just give up and not start at all. I suspect it might be the ignition switch, but is there anything else I should look at? It does not have any problems with the engine dying once it has started.
