I just started having an issue where I'll turn the key to start the car and nothing happens other than the dashboard lights and radio coming on like they normally would. If I try turning the key a couple of times, then it'll start but it sounds a little weaker of a start than normal. I've had the battery and alternator tested, and both are fine. I also replaced the battery terminals but still have this problem occasionally. Again, it doesn't happen every time I try starting the car, but it just started happening yesterday which makes me think it may only be the beginning and will get worse. Also, the door chime will come on when I open the door as if the keys are still in the switch sometimes but the keys aren't in there which makes me wonder if it's an ignition switch causing this problem. Any thoughts/ ideas would be helpful and appreciated.
