you can try a little electrical circuit cleaner (radio shack) or brake cleaner(parts store) but do NOT TRY SWITCH until the FLAMMABLE LIQUID is DRY!!!! :) ghetto, but it's what I'd try until I could change the thing..

No, but the contacts in your ignition key and in the lockcylinder can become so warn that they do not make contact anymore.
In what position are the contacts in when the relay is not operating?
The contacts could be in a normally open or they could be in a normally closed position depending on the type of relay it is. Most relays have their contacts in a C form configuration. This means that there is a common terminal to which the hot wire is connected and two sets of contacts one above and one below the common movable contact. In the de-energized state, between the common movable contact and the contact above will be in a N.C. (normally closed) position. This leaves the contact below and the common movable contact in a N.O. (normally open) position. The contact status is held in this position by a small spring. When the relay coil is energized, the state of these contacts reverse. The relay coils magnetism pulls on the coil armature, to which the common contact is attached, and over comes the pressure of the spring tension. The N.C contact becomes N.O and the N.O. contact becomes N.C. When reading an electrical schematic all relays contacts are drawn in the de-energized position.
Can a battery from cell phone contribute ignition source?
The battery itself can not, but, as with any battery, the contact of positive & negative contacts can cause a spark which may constitute an ignition source.

How does a normally closed contact work?
De-energize it and note the position of the contacts.

Is there a difference between adult contacts and regular contacts?
There is no difference between adult contacts and regular contacts. There are two kinds of contact lenses; extended wear and disposable. There are also colored contact lenses.
Does the electronic ignition system use contact points?
No it doesn't. A magnetic pick-up or a position sensor tells the electronics when to produce the spark.
