Possible faulty ignition switch? You'll have to do some electrical checks at the switch to confirm that.

Ignition switch or ignition lock?

That's not going to do a thing for the electrical circuit. That's not the switch. It's just a lock.

The ignition switch looks like this and is mounted to the steering column tube.
