What is your question?
2014 CRV EX-L. Intermittent failure to start when key is turned. Only noise is a click. After 1 or 2 more key turns engine starts. Might be a couple days before happens again. 1 1/2 yr old Battery checked and found good. Terminals cleaned. Ground wire checked, found clean and tight. Was told it was switch so I ordered Beck/Arnley #201-1810 Ignition Starter Switch. Thought I could unscrew several screws and remove steering wheel shroud to access switch as per an online video but there appears to be only 1 screw and no way to remove shroud. No other video or info found specific 2014 Honda CRV. Thinking possible need for airbag removal, pull steering wheel, hope not. If this is true is it something relatively easy for non mechanic to do?
What makes this problem better or worse?
Nothing
How long has your 2014 Honda CR-V had this problem?

Hello, Extremely unlikely to be a switch concern. Did you check the starter motor? We can't give information regarding specific repair instructions, but I will say that it's highly unlikely that the switch is the cause of concern.
Thanks for the reply. AAA Service had the vehicle for half a day, checked everything and could not find a problem. Of course, the no start issue did not occur when they had it. One time when after 4-5 key turns and still would not start, I smacked the bottom of the steering wheel shroud and next key turn it started. Therefore thought definitely switch problem. If anyone knows procedure of removing wheel shroud I will try the new switch first. I'm definitely not going to change starter motor myself. Thanks again.
