I have a 91 Civic auto, I can?t turn key past acc position to remove it until I hear a click from ignition switch, then it works fine. sometimes I have to wait only a few seconds, sometimes up to a minute. Maybe only once every 20-30 times do i not have to wait at all. Seems the shorter the trip the longer the wait. Was told to replace ignition switch, I did, but didn?t help. Sometimes i have problem with shift lock and have to push a nail into slot to shift out of park, could this be related, because when trying to shift I can hear a clicking in steering column. Does the "shift lock solenoid" have anything to do with the key release thats not allowing me to remove the key without waiting? :?:
