before we do anything, try your spare key and see if its the same thing.

parts .. i got a link in our classfieds for used parts and you can also go to craigslist.com to see if anyone near you is selling one.

 

that was the first thing i thought of so i tried it and it doesnt do it as much, but it still does it. do you think the chip inside the ignition is busted??? if so where shud i go to replace it and how much do you think it wud cost??? thanks for the help

how much shud that cost?
