Starting warm engine with key?

[markl]

Anyone ever had problems trying to restart warm engine, like a few minutes after you turned off? Only with the key mind :S the push button still works fine!! Any ideas ? or anyone had similar experience?

Never heard of that problem before and I cant see how using the key is different to pushing the button

Have spoke to me old man. He showed me the teg doin it. Its weird. If he's bin for a drive n the engine is warm then it turns the engine off, if he turns the key to start it then nothign happens and all the lights on the dash go off and also the stereo switches of for split second. :S It aint a bad problem considerin he uses the button anyway. Its probably something simple but he hasnt really lookedinto it. Jus realised other day. Thanks for the replys anyway

If the lights go off it sounds like its shorting somewhere??
