Hi abarkho,

Your question is very confusing and not precise about the problem.

Anyway if I did not guess wrongly, the ignition switch is faulty and needs to be replaced. The switch is sticking and not returning causing the starter to be engaged after the engine has started.

Make sure the abnormal noise is not present when starting or else you would damage the starter motor.
