Starter going out? When I put key in ignition, it takes about 10 turns to start
What is your question?
The lights and radio come on. When I turn the key it sounds like it wants to start but it doesn't "catch" and start the motor. I've never replaced the starter, does this sound like a starter problem?

Yes, after about 10 turns, and I think I may have revved the gas, it engaged the engine and full turned on. All of my element "error" lights were on when it wasn't catching the engine, the battery light, the transmission looking thing and the oil light. But my oil is good, I know that. I actually haven't driven since it did this because I am afraid I am going to get stranded!
It may be the ignition switch. I've had a similar problem and the switch was the culprit. There is a recall #10V-364 that may get you a new switch from Honda.

It needs to be checked out hands-on if you know someone that knows cars.. I figure it's the starter but... Hard to help much over the internet!
