When I start the car it may take a while for the radio and wipers to work, sometimes a long while. What could be the problem?

Hello,

It sounds like the ignition switch is going bad. To be sure here is a guide and the wiring diagrams to help us confirm the fault:

Check the yellow wire for power with the key on. Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know what you find. We are interested to see what it is.

Cheers, Ken
