I have the same problem.

I thought it was in the key side of the switch, so I bought one to replace it.

When I went to install the new one I had purchased, I found that it did not have any spring in it to return it to the start postion.

After this I removed the wired side, dismantled it and discovered that the metal piece that makes the switch return had broken off.

I did repair it although it has not completly fixed the problem.

I would suggest a new switch on the wired side.

The ignition switch is usually mounted to the steering column and is operated by a linkage rod. NOTEOn column-mounted ignition switches, don't confuse the switch with the lock cylinder and keys. The ignition switch is not normally visible. On some vehicles, the steering column support has to be removed and the column lowered to find the ignition switch. On others, the switch is accessible under the dash.The ignition switch is operated by the key switch. Courtesy of Ford Motor Company. To replace the switch: * Remove the ignition switch wiring harness. * Unbolt it from its position. * Bolt the new switch into position. * Attach the witing harness.
