I tried changing the ignition switch, but this was not the problem.

The starter relay or the starter itself is bad, let's remove the relay to see if it still does it. Here is the location of the relay and the starter wiring diagrams below to show you how the system works. Check out the diagrams (below). Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem.
