Ignition problem/ maybe not?

Hello all,

Quick question/concern about when I turn the ignition to start the car sometimes ( 3 occurences in 2 weeks) nothing catches or even tries to catch (no sound from ignition/engine/etc.) I try a few more times and it starts no problem the first time it sparks. I was wondering what may be causing this and what any replacement may need to be made, although my battery is still working all the time I do this and the ignition doesnt spark or anything, I just hear a dry click.
Thanks,
Benny D

Do you mean that there are sparks coming from the ignition switch ! Or is it that the engine runs, starts i.e. sparks.

Others have had trouble with the actual switch and there have been posts on the subject so a search should bring answers.

Good luck, but if not so good get back to us.
