I have a 2 part question. I have a 1998 Honda CRV. I just had the timing belt and battery replaced a week ago, and sometimes when I start the car, there is a buzzing sound, and none of the electrical components (such as the radio, or ac) work. If I turn the car off it seems to work once I turn it on again, but a few times it's been nearly impossbile to turn the key to the off position. What's going on here? Also upon restarting, I sometimes hear the sound you hear when you turn the to start the car after it has already started. Anyone have any ideas?

Hi ajt1975,

The symptoms described seems to indicate a faulty ignition switch.

When problem happens, are the dash lights showing when ignition switch is turned to ON?

Is the P light showing?
