Sounds like a bad ignition switch. It could also be a bad starter solenoid. If you can find the solenoid you can unplug one of the small wires while it is trying to crank over and see if it stops. If it does it is probably the switch. If it doesn't then it is probably the solenoid.

Why does the starter stay engaged on ford 460 motorhome?
If your starter stays engaged it is either your stater relay (solenoid) or your ignition switch.It is usually the relay,either mounted on your inner fender(earlier system)or on the starter itself.Follow the positive cable (red) from your battery,if it goes directly to your starter it is the later system.To test disconnect the ignition wire on the relay,the small gauge wire.If there is 2 small wires on the fender mounted relay you can disconnect them both if your not sure witch is ignition wire.Leave the 2 large wires connected.If it still is turning over it is your relay,if it stopped it is your ignition.If you have the stater mounted relay remove the small wire from the "S" terminal,and repeat as above.

You need to replace your ignition switch. I had the same problem on a Ford f-150 and that's what it turned out to be. Does the starter stay engaged or does it disengage itself? can you turn the key switch and nothing happens once it has started
