It could be starter, battery, keyswitch, neutral lockout switch or electrical connections.

Why does the Starter motor continue to operate when ignition switch is turned off on a Volvo 240 GL 1983?
wires on the starter are criss crossed
Why does the starter in a 1995 Pontiac grand prix work and other times the starter does not turn over but everything else works?
more than likely it is your starter telling you "hey bud, yeah its time" My 99 was doing the same thing. Turned out to be a bad starter. Replaced it and took some pics along the way. You can see them at the following link. http://hubpages.com/hub/Starter-Removal-1999-Pontiac-Grand-Prix
How do you fix a fluorescent ceiling light that lights up seconds after the switch is turned on?
Try moving the tube in the fittings, if this doesnt work, then you probably need a new starter motor.
How can you tell if a starter has went out on an Ford truck?
If the engine won't turn over when you operate the key that's a pretty good idea. You then check battery condition and connections first. If they are good, then go to the starter and check for good grounding and voltage when the key is turned.
1991 camarro wont start motor doesnt turn over doese not draw power when key turned to on position radio and windows work?
Probably the starter, have someone turn the key to the crank position while you gently tap the starter with a hammer or bar. If it starts change the starter. If not try shorting the starter solenoid to see if that works.
When did Pontiac start?
right after I turned the key
What does an automobile starter do?
Besides the smart alec answer "start an automobile", a starter has a small gear, that will both extend as well as rotate when the key is turned. This gear will engage teeth on the flywheel/flexplate, which is bolted to the rear of the crankshaft. As the starter turns, the engine will be turned.
1986 f150 starter wont shut off when key turned off?
A 1986 Ford F150 starter won't stuff off when the key is turned off if the ignition switch is jammed. This will cause the start signal to be sent to the starter continuously.
Starter relay for 1997 Chevy s10 pickup?
The starter relay feeds power to the starter when the switch is turned to start. The relay will be mounted either on the fender or on the firewall.
Should the starter gears be in contact with the fly wheel before engaging the starter?
Absolutely not. The starter gear must fully disengage the flywheel gears when you release the starter. Otherwise when the engine starts the starter will continue to be turned by the engine.
What causes the starter not to engage when the key is turned on in a 1992 Lincoln?
If there is complete silence when the key is turned, try tapping the solenoid on the starter with a hammer. Don't laugh. I have found this to be the solution in several cases. This is sure proof that the starter solenoid is the problem. You will want to install a new starter which comes with a new solenoid before you get stranded.
What does the pulser in the fuel tank on the 1986 Pontiac fiero?
The pulser in the tank on Fiero does not exsist. The item that buzzes inside the tank for a second every time the key is turned on is the fuel pump. The computer turns it on when the key is turned on and while the starter is turning the engine. The pump is run by a relay and the oil pressure switch going down the road.
